Summary
I am a hardworking young man with excellent problem-solving skills. I am always willing to learn something new and ask questions along the way if I am uncertain about how to do the tasks presented to me. I have been working with water for a year and 8 months; however, I would like to continue growing my knowledge and experience with water. My primary goal is to advance within the company, take on new roles, and obtain certifications and licenses to maximize my contributions to the company's success.
