Eduardo Aaron Renteria Alvarez

I worked as a foreman and translator, overseeing and coordinating a diverse crew on various construction projects. My role required strong leadership skills, effective communication, and the ability to bridge language gaps between workers and supervisors. I ensured tasks were completed safely, efficiently, and according to plan, often acting as the point of contact between English- and Spanish-speaking team members. During the winter months, I also took on responsibility for snow removal operations, managing a team to clear roads, sidewalks, and job sites promptly to maintain safety and accessibility. This seasonal work demanded early hours, attention to detail, and quick decision-making under harsh weather conditions.

I worked in general labor, where I took on various tasks that required physical strength and attention to detail. My responsibilities included parking lot painting, where I meticulously marked lines and spaces to ensure an organized and safe environment for drivers. Additionally, I operated a blower to keep the areas clean and free of debris. My experience also extended to working in a quarry, where I skillfully operated a guillotine for cutting materials. This diverse range of duties not only enhanced my practical skills but also taught me the importance of teamwork and safety in a dynamic work setting.

I worked as a waiter at a restaurant called Chabelitas, where I not only served customers but also took on delivery work. This dual role allowed me to interact directly with diners while ensuring that our delicious meals reached those who ordered takeout. The experience taught me the importance of efficiency and customer satisfaction, as I navigated the bustling environment of the restaurant and the streets to deliver a taste of our culinary offerings.
