Who I Am
Curious
I’m a fast learner who loves researching various topics and learning new skills. I take steps to expand my knowledge and skillset every day, and I’m very comfortable adapting quickly to new situations. But don’t just take my work for it—give me an opportunity and I’ll prove it!
Detailed
All of my work experience has depended on intense attention to the smallest details—which I pride myself in—but I also practice maintaining a wider focus to avoid losing sight of the big picture. One lesson shared between being a bike mechanic and a press technician is to consider the simplest solutions before taking the whole thing apart, even if that would be more fun.
Prepared
Organization, communication, and project planning are some of my most developed skills. I’m always focused on time management for the most efficient work and to succeed in meeting or beating deadlines. I’m not afraid to break out the stopwatch.
Enthusiastic
I am down for anything. I enjoy talking to people, learning their experiences, and attempting to make them laugh. Past clients have given me (and my supervisors) consistently positive feedback, and it’s always a warm feeling to reach a first name basis with someone. I believe my commitment to exceeding expectations with a friendly and positive attitude has established some excellent lasting relationships. Great phone and email etiquette also goes a long way.
