Contributed to seasonal aspects of agricultural biotech research. Trained employees on seasonal research tasks and coordinated crews of seasonal employees in performing research trials. Led organizational efforts for more efficient use of space. Maintained and operated research agricultural equipmentI worked with every aspect of Monsanto's field operations. This includes everything from supervising field workers during the summer months to data collection and entry during fall and winter. I also maintain the landscaping through the installation of irrigation systems and general lawn-care tasks. There are times when both large and small equipment must be worked with and on in the case of some malfunction. Often, solutions must be designed and fabricated so that equipment will operate as expected. I have trained new employees in tasks and have participated in efforts to improve work practices. With a large supply storage at the facility, I have led efforts in re-organization of supplies to increase safety and to plan requisitions for the coming year. As this company is based in agricultural research, heavy machinery operation is a large part of my job.
