I have held a number of marketing and consulting positions and owned my own construction business
since leaving L & W Supply Corporation but the resume submission limitations with this system limited the
length of my resume. I have therefore reduced my work experience to the particular position that best
represents my skills for your opportunity. I look forward to speaking with you personally.
