Summary

I am an initiative-driven and keen worker willing and eager to challenge myself with new experiences and engage in new and stimulating learning environments. I like to be challenged in both my personal and working life and take on extra responsibilities as required. I am a friendly, approachable, and responsible worker with a keen ability to learn. I have earned respect and admiration from my co-workers in my previous positions and will bring to this position my love of all animals, eagerness, and a work ethic that includes integrity, fairness, and respect for everyone.
