GOAL: DELIVERY DRIVER - CEDAR RAPIDS

SKILLS: On access.bridges.com, a work assessment company, scored extremely high on

"relationships" and "achievement" - a team player willing to work. Have (always) done well with

customer satisfaction, a (strong) point of mine, and been consistently in the top third in auto

sales. Auto sales was fast paced, highly prioritized, frequently stressful, and negotiation based.

Familiar with computers, accounting, and have a chauffeur's license. Great working with numbers

and people. Graduate of The University of Iowa.

EXPERIENCE: 12 years in auto sales (2 years as finance manager) required listening, being a

detective and counseling, negotiating during stressful situations, phone work, accounts and

billing, and serving customers with effective written and oral communication. Flexible to work the

hours required and am very interested in having you call me for your delivery position!

WORK HISTORY:

* 7/08-10/08 Buick GMC Cadillac Of North Cedar Rapids (393-3300). Auto sales. Sold cars

very briefly. Car sales were temporarily slower and it didn't work out, unfortunately.

* 9/01-7/08 Traded a stock account with limited results. This entailed many hours to do an

adequate job at learning it, eventually seeking a return to outside employment.

* 1/98-9/01 RR Donnelley, Iowa City (351-3530). Forms design and proofreading by

computer to set up printing jobs. Terminated by RR Donnelley (Moore North America then) as

they proceeded to layoff during a slowdown starting after September 2001. This job entailed great

attention to detail and skill, and a job I enjoyed very much.

* 5/97-1/98 Hargrave Mceleney, Iowa City (354-1011). Auto sales. Successfully sold cars to

the general buying public. Left on good terms after 12 years in the business to try something

other than auto sales and went to Moore printing to use some of my training.

* 11/96-5/97 Cassill Motors, Cedar Rapids (396-2698). Finance manager at an auto

dealership. For a short while tried my hand as finance manager in the business office as it was a

promotion. It was quasi-sales and I failed to sell the warranties and insurances in sufficient

quantities. Left on very good terms with Cassill to go to Hargrave Mceleney in Iowa City for a

sales position. It was a very good learning experience, however.

* 2/91-11/96 1st Avenue Chrysler-Plymouth, Cedar Rapids (out of business). Auto sales. Sold

cars to the general public. A good place to work. Left them after approximately 6 years to take the

position as finance manager at Cassill Motors, as it was a promotion.

* 7/89-2/91 Rapids Chevrolet, Cedar Rapids (out of business). Auto sales and leasing.

Started in sales, then was promoted to finance manager. Was finance manager until the sale and

closing of the dealership. The owner, Bill Fletcher, was a fabulous man to work for. He fostered a

friendly team environment.

PRODUCTION EXPERIENCE:

In high school took courses in shop, metal working, wiring, printing and screening. Over time

have done light mechanical repair on my own cars.

While in college, worked part-time for the U.S. Post Office on mail sorters, and 5 years at

Wilson Foods Meatpacking (2 1/2 years full time with over 1 year night sanitation). On sanitation

was awarded the nickname of "flash", as I had to work so quickly when production worked late.

EDUCATION:

A.A., Kirkwood Community College, with a major in pre-business.

B.B.A., University of Iowa, with a major in economics / financial economics

M.B.A., University of Iowa, with a major in management information systems

VETERAN STATUS: Honorable Discharge

ADDRESS: 1500 Oakland Road N.E. #209, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52402-4747
