STORY OF MY LIFE
I am always looking for something to broaden my skill set, advance my knowledge-base, and drive ultimate success. I am self-motivated, hard-working, confident, attentive and goal oriented with respect to deadlines. I strive to make a name for myself through rapport with my co-workers by being sociable, enthusiastic, and a great listener.
When I’m not a sponge for knowledge or nurturing my creative tendencies, I like to toss a frisbee, snowboard, and try any new experiences Kansas City has to offer. I enjoy and thrive in social situations, but also love a relaxing, peaceful day to recharge my battery.
“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes is better than a master of one.”
– William Shakespeare
