Patrick Wallace
Biography:
Military Experience: 3.4 years
Work Experience:
My name is Patrick Wallace, I spent just over 3-years with the US Army and about 4-years with the National Guard, all were done as an Infantryman in different capacities. I seperated completely from the military in 2017. I am a very dedicated and steadfast worker with a desire to learn and a desire to be motivated with a outcome that will make me proud of what I have accomplished. At the moment I am seeking a career change and I am willing to plug myself in with any form of employment within the trades that is willing to give me an oppurtunity to better myself. I am a rather quick study but will admit that at times I might need something repeated for I can be very detail orientated and have every desire to get what has been taught correct without too many blemishes attached. I strongly beleive in pursuing all educational oppurtunites, from a professional work enviroment to that of college education. I am very time orientated as well for I believe that having yourself prepared as best as possible, both mentally, physically, and professionally can make all the difference in the outcome of your day; so knowing how to balance the day and the hours and minutes that go into them is very important. I also strongly beleive in helping others where I can, a team is not able to succeed, even at the most expereinced level without that team helping each other out where they can.
My qualifications are vague for I went into the fire service after the military and although I have continued to only better my current strengths my qualifications in any trade is very limited and perhaps nothing compared to those who have worked in the trades for many, many years. However, my overall career objective is to find a career that I am constantly learning something new and to hopefully reach a point where I can also help those who may find themselves in a position in life such as myself.
