Summary

Dependable fast learner with a strong work ethic, bringing a 4.0 GPA and 3 years of experience in computer programming, metal working, fast food and retail sales. When I’m focused on a program, I can spend hours designing it without feeling anything but thrilled. I helped bring my code to life at my high school’s robotics team where I could use lathes, mills, and other machinery to perfect the metal parts our team needed. My experience in restaurant positions taught me to thrive under pressure and excel in fast-paced, team-based environments. Finally, as a sales associate I also enjoy working with customers, ensuring I leave a smile on each face I assist, with a proven history of creating returning customers, and efficiently resolving conflicts.
