A responsible, ethical and independent self-starter with extensive managerial background, a methodical problem-solver who recognizes difficulties and acts upon them creatively and aggressively. Excellent rapport with people.

George's Personal Mission Statement

"All things should be subject to you, not you to them. You should be lord and master of your own actions. You are to be a free and true person going on to the destiny and freedom of the sons and daughters of God. Such people stand above present things and look toward eternal ones. With the left eye they see passing things. They are not attracted to the things of this world so that they cling to them, but instead use them as intended by God, the Supreme Artist, who has left nothing without purpose in his creation". Thomas 'a Kempis
