Summary

Striving towards expert leadership and continuous innovation. Over the years I have had the opportunity to

learn about myself and try different things. With that I've discovered that I want to continue down the path of

being a leader of people. In my teenage years I had the opportunity to be a shift manager at McDonalds and a

Manager at the Rams Den while at the University of Rhode Island. During that time I found that I was able to

lead a variety of people to great results.

In my personal life I've always been into technology and creating. During my time at Cox Communications I

have had the opportunity to learn how to integrate those interests and create with the purpose of improving

efficiencies.

My plan is to continue on that path throughout my professional career and push myself to achieve excellence. I

have developed many skills but I look forward to new challenges as I learn about SQL, Java and any

applications that can improve an operation and create a more efficent work environment for my staff in the near

future.
