Greetings!
I'm looking to join a team that shares my passion to solve problems and build things. I have many skills attained from work, such as communication, service, design, and development, all based on a sound work ethic, but I think life and passion trump all. As Herb Kelleher said, “Don’t hire for skills, hire for attitude,” and he transformed Southwest Airlines on that concept.
My biggest life experience is thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail. Five months out in the wild to backpack over 2,000 miles, that left me forever changed. Let me relate this to You. I’ve hiked 7 days a week, 12 hours a day, rain or shine, hot or cold. I get the job done, no excuse. I’ve planned logistics involving crucial shipments, travel, lodging, including rationing my food supply when the nearest road is days away. I pay attention to detail because the cost not to is too great. At times I wanted to quit because conditions were extreme, and I was in pain, but remembered how blessed I was to be out there when others couldn’t. I will be there for you, whatever the cost, because I am committed to what I set out to do.
It also changed my character. I developed invaluable traits. I became extremely disciplined and self-motivated. I learned to set lofty goals and break them down into smaller ones. I became patient and learned that to succeed sometimes all you have to do is never give up. I began my journey thinking I could do anything, and I finished knowing that I could do anything. It’s amazing how far one foot in front of the other can take you.
As an Eagle Scout my values and work ethic are brilliant. I promise you I will be a leader and take charge through my passion and drive. I assure you no task is above me and certainly not below.
I realize you need to find the right fit, just as I need to do for myself. Let’s talk soon and see where it leads.
Cheers,
