Summary
Former amateur and professional boxer, highly driven, hardworking, team player, with almost 10 years of supervision experience. The past 3 years I have been a volunteer coach at the Calgary Boxing Club to help give back to the sport that taught me so much – discipline, overcoming diversity, and how to control your emotions. This helps me not only in my day to day life but also in my supervisory roles.
