My education and work experience have prepared me to begin my career in construction and be a valuable asset to both a construction project team and the company as a whole.  I am a self-starter and quick learner which allows me to perform my duties with minimal, general supervision.  My focus to detail and getting things done right the first time and on time allows me to multi-task.  I am confident these abilities along with a desire to learn more will aid me in performing duties.  My past work experience has given me good communication skills and the ability to coordinate between managers, co-workers, clients, and other departments.
