Summary
Objectives Searching for a company with strong work ethics who ensure the safety of their employees. I work extremely well both in a team environment and independently. Working under pressure and changing direction hasn’t impacted me in finishing tasks at hand. My positive attitude, compassion and understanding for others, is a strength when working in the needs of the company as well as the employees.
