I have great leadership skills but, team work makes a dream work. I am a hard working and driven individual who isn't afraid of challenges or failing, learning from mistakes is important. Very self motivated, responsible, and very ambitious to experience and learn new things. I'm 42 years old and retiring from the ILWU and Port of San Diego. I've enjoyed improving people's lives and the community.
