Summary

I’m a hard worker with the outlook on life that everything can be achieved with a great attitude. I’m willing to learn where needed. Age is just a number and does not define what a person is capable of. I am a “Jack-of all trades”, and grab every available opportunity given to me; I have also gained experience and knowledge of management positions and various duties.
