Summary
Being a member of gymnastics team Canada at the age of 9, training 24hrs weekly I grew a great work ethic that all my employers/ anyone I associate with can attest to . I learned how to manage my time and still complete my high school degree at age 17 as well as my bilingual certificate . I am a hard worker and leader. Having earned the Team Lead position in security working day shifts at the Core shopping center and TD square downtown Calgary I have learned a lot about managing employees and communication with management. Despite my young age, I often find myself working with people a few years older I have proven to be an excellent role model and team member.
