Niagara Falls

Summary

I believe that I would be an asset for your position of Invasive Species Summer Technician because I possess key skills that would be an essential addition to your team such as oral and written communication skills, data collection both in the field and inputting data into databases such as excel or R.


As a full-time student, my coordination skills have progressed immensely along with my presentation abilities. Throughout attaining my Biology degree at Brock University, I've grown an appreciation for our environment and am excited to engage with the community. Topics such as environmental sustainability, and species endangerment are issues I'm extremely passionate about.


The foundational knowledge I have gained in biology and species identification gives me a strong starting position to learn more. The-hands on experience I've gained in my weekly labs provides me with relative knowledge for this opportunity. My major allows me to curate presentations monthly where i'm able to demonstrate my knowledge in front of my classmates.


Past careers such as lifeguarding and photography have equipped me with many valuable traits. My experience with public safety has improved my observational skills from being a lifeguard for over 3 years. Along with starting a photography business at 15. I was actively involved with the city of Niagara Falls which allowed me with business opportunities within the community.


I appreciate your time in reading my resume and cover letter, I hope you consider me for this position. Please don't hesitate to contact me regarding any further questions at 905-351-3999 or andrewlegros27@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you and am excited if given the opportunity to assist with the betterment of our community. Thank you so much.
