Objective
- Health issues have forced me to look for work outside of the blue collar arena. My health is fine now, I just cn no longer work in dust or fume filled areas... I welcome this change. Although my resume doesn't necessarily reflect a strong sales or marketing background, I would contend that having spent 25 years selling myself as an artist and an agent,has helped me in developing the skills needed to perform a sales/marketing position. I have never failed at a new task. I look forward to getting my foot in the door with someone, and showing them that my enthusiasm, experience(however limited) and determination, will make me a top performer. I know I have the ability to build and maintain successful business relationships, and I am very eager to use these abilities to start a new and permanent path.
