Summary

I’m a hard working young man who strives to do the best at his job everyday. I work towards being a team player and doing everything I can to improve the workplace and environment that I’m in. I take constructive criticism well and am always looking to improve where I can. Every job is an opportunity to showcase how hardworking and dedicated I am to doing the best I can at everything I put my mind to. In the short time at Applebees I’ve been named employee of the month and started training new employees.

My goals are to get into the medical field and find where I can help make a difference.
