To do interesting and practical work, probably in a small to medium sized company. To work with talented, accomplished people. To learn, deepening my knowledge of computers and the Internet, along with more mundane skills. Ideally my job would challenge me, utilizing my spoken, written, and creative skills while giving me experience with the range of issues faced by the business. A quick learner, I am not afraid to have to prove my worth or ability. When I do, I appreciate it when new opportunites open up for me. I don’t consider any kind of work either beneath or above me. I am open to travelling, if necessary. I have an interest in real estate, as well as urban development, renovaton and reconstruction which I intend to pursue eventually, either with my primary employer, or on the side.
RECENT WORK HISTORY
CURRENT Lutfy/Brinkmann Residence Brooklyn, NY
Brownstone Renovation
n Stripping, sanding, wood finishing, plastering, priming and painting is what it is all about these days. The building is a beautiful five story brownstone on the edge of Bedford-Stuyvesant that has previously had very little done to it in its life of over a hundred years. It is hard but very rewarding work, and one type of project I hope to get personally involved in in the coming years.

Tour Leader
n Getaway Adventures was a small but rapidly growing provider of tours, custom vacation packages, and corporate offsite events. My role as a tour leader involved an attempt to virtually guarantee a great experience to a wide variety of guests, sometimes under adverse circumstances, while hiking, biking, kayaking, or horseback riding in the Bay Area, and the big island of Hawaii.
