I am a very capable individual and team member, who is able to quickly grasp new situations and 'learn the ropes' at an accelerated rate. I have a history of challenging myself and my boundaries, I have a generous and open-minded personality, I am well-organized, and, with proper incentive, highly motivated. I am also technologically-savvy and capable of figuring out new technology fairly rapidly. Similarly, I enjoy problem-solving. Je peux parler et écrire le français au niveau intermédiaire.Within the last 10 years, when not working as a Librarian, I have worked as a: movie extra, construction labourer, warehouse labourer, security guard, seafood salesperson, bakery worker, salvation army thrift store employee, landscaper, video game tester, and as an editor. In addition, I have organized an independent 6 month backpacking trip through Europe, hitch-hiked across Canada, bicycled from Vancouver to San Francisco, bicycled NS/The Cabot Trail, and bicycled from Montreal to Halifax. I have also hosted around 100 groups of people through the Couchsurfing organization, and I have stayed with close to 60 different people while travelling. I have written hundreds of Goodreads reviews, many of them well. As you can see, I am highly versatile, flexible, disciplined, adventurous, reliable and capable. I have the confidence and experience that comes with putting myself in challenging new situations on a frequent basis.Specialties: Customer ServiceTrainingPresentationsCustomer and Technical SupportGroup FacilitationSocial Diversity ManagementEvent/Trip PlanningEditingCreative DesignLanguage AdaptabilityWeb Maintenance and DesignComputer OptimizationDigital OrganizationHistorical KnowledgeDiverse ViewpointsPhysical Capability and EnduranceMental FocusGuaranteed Project Completion
