Was in New Orleans in May-June 2006 performing relief work. Painted houses, put

employment was funded entirely by voluntary donations. This property is visited by
40,000 people a year, thus having the need to look pristine and inviting. While we
needed to keep it looking nice, we also realized the need to use voluntary funds
wisely, and so worked at using money prudently, while not sacrificing any sort of
quality. I have the ability to perform with minimal supervision.
