REECE WARD
Tucson
Summary
I graduated from the University Of Arizona in May 2020, with a bachelors in Government and Public Service; as well as a minor in Organizational Leadership. I have a passion for government policies and working for government related agencies and organizations. I am striving to one day work for a government subcommittee regarding National Defense or military affairs. I have expert public speaking skills and abundant knowledge of business management and leadership. I am a natural leader who loves working with a team. Once I start a new job and get behind a routine that works I will grow in performance exponentially in a short period of time. I have a retentive memory so I learn quickly. I desire a career that pertains more to my education and skills. I wish to work for political campaigns or work closely with political appointees.
