Eric Birkholz Email & Phone Number

I am a confident person with a natural thirst for knowledge. I strive to give my all in everything I do as I believe that with effort, intelligence and consideration, nothing is impossible. I enjoy observing situations from many perspectives and using logic to come up with imaginative and original ideas to solve or improve the situation. I take every opportunity to improve my knowledge, and have a curiosity that allows me take on any intellectual challenge. I trust my rationalism and therefore can be honest and direct when communicating with others. I am a responsible person and take charge of my actions. I am always open to new ideas brought to me by others when supported by logic, even if they prove my previous conceptions wrong. My open-mindedness, determination, independence, confidence and strategic abilities allow me to do anything I set my mind to.In my work I am able to work independently or in small groups. I strive to have personal initiative, determination, insight and dedication, and believe that everyone should complete their work to the highest possible standards. I have a capacity for understanding difficult and complex theories and principles and converting them into clear and actionable ideas and strategies. I filter noise out of a situation by staying calm and detached, allowing me to identify the core of a situation. When my interest is piqued I become incredibly dedicated and am able to put in long hours and intense effort to see an idea through. I am efficient at consolidating and accomplishing tasks, and in the process of completing the tasks setting up systems that quicken the completion of future repetitive tasks.
