These days experience is what gets you places and I am looking for a better opportunity for myself. I am very friendly and an unbelievably quick learner. I just need a good place to start and a chance to prove myself. There's a good variety in my skills but writing is my passion. Put a pen in my hand and I can move mountains. Authorized to work in the US for any employer
