I have been a "Jack"of many trades since 1978. I have worked many years with
electronics, from Quality Control to becoming Senior Field Technician for a Laser
Entertainment Corporation, both here and abroad. When the laser industry
became outdated I then moved into Direct Sales, an entirely different field. I am a
quick learner, have a good personality, employ humor in dealing with the public,
am responsible and honest. Along with selling products I then assumed the
responsibility of selecting the products, transporting them from warehouse to office
and coordinating others in their responsibilities. I have worked the largest Trade
Shows in the country from International Auto Shows to State Fairs.
My off time has been filled with purchasing homes, either to re sell or rent. I can
repair, build or maintain any property, and with that ability I am self employed part
time as a handyman. I work hard and have pride in what I accomplish.
However, with all that said, I am in need of steady work. I enjoy both physical and
mental work, the ideal being a combination of the both.
I thank you in advance for your time in looking over my resume and look forward to
hearing from you.
