I started working at a young age. My first job was at Sam's Club at age 16 where I learned the true meaning of responsibility. If you're on time you're late and take any opportunity for growth as if it was going to be gone the next day. I quickly earned my forklift certification and worked there until my classes required more of my attention. After high school, I moved from my hometown in Maryland to the sunshine state and started working at McDonald's where I learned teamwork, organization, cleanliness, and how to work in a fast-paced environment where customer service is key. From there, I started a new role at Taco Bell where I learned how to be a leader. Starting as a team member, then a team trainer, and soon transitioning to a supervisor, I learned how to become a leader that people wanted to stand behind. I learned how to listen and problem-solve to create a work environment that any team member would be proud to be part of. After my wife and I decided to have grow our family, I transitioned to a day job as a floor manager at a fish market. There, I learned the meaning of hard work. From packing fish, to managing orders and delivering packages across state lines, I learned what my body was capable of. I also learned that I have a true love for fishing. I am now working as an assistant housekeeping manager at a vacation rental company where I've learned data entry, quality assurance, and how to create a luxury customer experience. My passion is to learn - plain and simple. If we aren't learning something new every day, then what are we doing? I'm ready to start a new role where I can learn, grow, and enhance my skills every day.
