Summary
Dear hiring manager, I am a highly disciplined and results driven professional with experience as a Rifleman in the Marine Corps Reserve and a Manager at Buffalo Wild Wings. I have great leadership, team coordination, and strategic decision making capabilities in high pressure environments. I have consistently proven the ability to manage daily operations, improve customer service, and drive team performance in a fast-paced setting. Furthermore I have a strong background in training and executing tactical operations, with a focus on attention to detail, effective communication, and problem solving. I combine military precision with excellent management skills to achieve organizational goals and deliver outstanding service. To add to that I am a motivated student at Lewis University working on my degree in Criminal Justice and minoring in cyber security, I am also planning to go work on my masters once I have complete my undergraduate degree. One last thing I was selected to go to the Platoon Leaders Course in Quantico Virginia to go through the selection process of becoming an officer in the Marine Corps.
