Additional Information

I am a hard dedicated worker knowing that efficiency is the most important and one way to that is become extremely organized.

Self taught through online information, videos, articles, hands on knowledge

The company I currently work the information we needed on a daily basis scattered throughout our learning portal which didn't not allow us to reach our full potential, so i created a portal of mine own with all important information and put it into One note. Other co workers are able to access and excel at their job.
