What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow my skills in a supportive environment, particularly in sales or customer service roles.

I am a diversely skilled and versatile worker with a strong ability to learn and adapt quickly to different roles. My experience spans various industries, including sales, customer service, and warehouse operations. I pride myself on being an excellent communicator with a positive attitude, which has allowed me to build strong relationships with colleagues and clients alike.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my capability in coaching, security, and assembly line work. As an Assistant Baseball Coach, I prepared students with life skills through the sport, mentoring youth in respect, collaboration, and perseverance. My security experience at the airport and Comerica Park involved ensuring safety and maintaining a welcoming atmosphere for guests. Additionally, my warehouse and assembly roles have honed my physical strength and attention to detail, enabling me to efficiently manage tasks and contribute to team success.
