Summary

My passion is nature and sharing this with others. I pride myself on my ability to assist others with their needs. My previous experiences have taught me the importance of quality customer service. I have always had high expectations of myself to start and finish any task, no matter how big or small. After many years of casual employment, I am looking for long-term stable employment.
