Experience
Most recently I have worked as a writing consultant at a university.  Two years ago I was working as a lab tech asst. for schlumberger with a very wide ranging set of responsiblities.  Less recently I have worked as a life guard have been certified as such by the red cross.

Skils
I am a very quick learner and very hard worker.  I also  have quick sound judgement in practical situations.  I have special aptitude on boats and in the water, which I have been around my whole life.  I have also demostrated the ability to lead groups of people.  Currently I am finishing up a movie which I cast, produced, directed, and am editing myself. I was in charge of a cast and crew of over thirty people and raised and managed a budget of over thirty thousand.  I know this is a far cry from maritime shipping but it does exhibit drive, tenacity, and leadership.
