Personal Summary
I am a self motivator striving towards excellence in my work. A quick response and a fast
turnaround time help me ensure availability of parts and material at all times. The
satisfaction of a job well done always inspire me to do my best at all times. I strive to
know as much as possible and as quickly as possible of the product, procedures and
regulations pertaining to my job. I am an excellent team player, but manage perfectly
without constant supervision or help escalating to different levels in the organization if
