Summary
Dedicated and high performing individual that functions and performs well in a team environment that was learned during my professional sport experience. I've learned to deal and overcome very difficult situations. Both from a personal and as a Social Worker. which I believe will come very handy in this new journey as a professional painter. I'm a focused, reliable, and results-driven individual who likes achieving and surpassing any reasonable goals assigned to me. I also have acquired most of the basic skills (technical, practical, and soft) requirements for such a position.
