My diverse work history enables me to adapt quickly to changing circumstances. Although I am a strong team player, my ability to prioritize, organize and work independently allows me to complete tasks efficiently. I am a strong self-starter with a great work ethic and work well under pressure while maintaining a positive attitude. Always open to suggestion, I welcome ideas to be more effective and efficient in reaching goals. As an enthusiastic leader I thrive on challenges. WORK EXPERIENCE
