Summary

Currently a Group Leader at Lippert Components with many skills and still wanting to improve and learn so much more. From a restaurant worker to working in a factory almost 8 years now, I have learned and gained so much along the way and I'm very thankful for where I stand now. I am bilingual in writing and verbally, willing to help anyone. I'm a strong worker who isn't afraid to learn or teach what I know. I'm always open to new opportunities because to me, the more you know is always better.
