As a brief personal introduction; Rhonda, my wife of the last 28 years,
and I have been blessed to have 3 wonderful daughters and now are the
proud grandparents of 1 granddaughter, so far. We have both been raised
and live in Southern Oregon that has had so much to offer for active
outdoor families. We have always been avid sports enthusiasts, preferring
to be in the action rather than watching from the side. Having and instilling
a 'go for it' mentality we are high energy and enthusiastic in our endeavors.
My past work history has been in public service, sales, marketing, Law
Enforcement, facility maintenance and general/mechanical contracting. My
real world hands on experiences have allowed me to learn and perform
many tasks that makes one a competitive, successful and viable entity in a
wide range of career fields.
I am a detail oriented person with an excellent work ethic. I enjoy
challenges and welcome new information and learning opportunities. I am
self motivated to achieve beyond expectations, not willing to settle for
average. Progressing from a department manager at the age of twenty two,
to starting my own company at twenty four years of age illustrates my
motivation and success in the workplace.
I respectfully request your consideration, and I look forward to meeting
with you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Kenneth A. Jones
