I have been involved in automotive manufacturing most my life. I have

worked in many different departments, learned every aspect of business and

feel I can be an asset to most companies. I have been involved in three

consolidations over the last ten years. I'm ready to try something

different. I have dealt with internal and external customer on a daily

basis and feel that I have the people skills to do most anything. I have

always been a dedicated employee. I consider myself a good manager,

communicator, teacher, trainer and student. My attendance has always been

good and have always got along with fellow employees.

I know that I may not have all the qualifications for some job

opportunities, but I have many and I'm eager to learn anything necessary to

function successfully. I'm a person that's not afraid of hard work and

always looking for better ways to perform my job. I'm willing to work at

any position with hopes of progressing. Thanks for your consideration.
