Summary

As I continue to search for professional growth, I've come to realize how versatile my skill set has become over the past several years. I began my professional experience in the restaurant business at a young age and I began to understand the importance of client relations and service. I then moved to commissioned sales and began to develop my professional identity and work ethic.

The work ethic I developed was beneficial during college. I managed to excel during this time and maintained a 3.59 GPA during my time at Towson University. My dedication to my studies paid off and I achieved the Dean's List at Towson every semester that I attended. I was also accepted into Beta Gamma Sigma Honors Society which invites the top 10% of students at Towson's College of Business and Economics. I did not see college purely as a resume builder, but as an asset to achieve personal and professional growth.

I studied the Arabic language and Towson and continue to study the language today. During college, I also developed my ability to think critically, to creatively design business publications and documents, and to understand the essentials of international commerce and trade.

These skills have defined my professional identity and enabled me to find an internship position with an international logistics company called CDS Air Freight based in Sterling, VA that specializes in high threshold government services. During my time at the internship, I have been able to utilize these skills in a professional setting. I communicated with international clients, managed logistic information systems, and worked with U.S. Customs for both imports and exports on a daily basis.

In December 2011, I had the opportunity to join five other investors in starting up an LLC called the Utah Gold Company. Through research and strategic acquisition, we have amassed a collection of mining claims in north-western Utah. We have focused our attention on certain metals, particularly Tungsten. During my time with the Utah Gold Company, I have played a major role in conducting qualitative research into new claims, ensuring compliance with both local and federal regulations, and conducting assays within our mining claims. In 2015, we signed a lucrative contract with a large mining company to actively mine two of our claims. At this point, we are comfortable with our positioning and I do not need to dedicate significant time to this project at this point.

Beginning in 2012, I became a property manager for a small family-run apartment complex called Salem House LLC. I manage all the day-to-day activities of the business and am on the front-end, managing tenants' needs and all financial activities of the properties.

I hope to take these skills that I have developed from such a variety of work experiences and use them in my future professional endeavors.
