CULTURAL WORK EXPERIENCE

My work experience has provided overseas travel in all continents except Antarctica. Through travel and work, I have had the privilege to meet all kinds of people in a variety of vocations and experience diverse cultures. My work experience has allowed me the opportunity to interact with company personnel from CEOs to senior managers to senior officers in military organizations. I am comfortable sitting with an engineer between ship generators and reporting investigation results to the C-Suite. PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE (2006-Present)
