Stony Plain,Alberta

Summary

I am a 19-year-old former student at the University of Alberta, I have grown up around trades and the outdoors my whole life. My initial choice in career was to apply myself towards a 4-year Major in Land Reclamation and implement my knowledge of the outdoors towards a career revolving around data analysis and testing of different aspects of the environment such as soil, water, and vegetation. Recently I have discovered that the career is no longer appealing to me and I am intending on developing a career within trades. Throughout my first year of school I dedicated myself to my work and finished my first year with a 3.1 GPA. I am competent and reliable. I am cooperative and can follow instructions. I can work on my initiative, I am self-motivated and enthusiastic. I am very hard-working and physically fit. I enjoy learning new things, I view training and learning as a challenge, and I am very keen to do everything I can to ensure that I work hard and am a success to my employer and for my career.
