SKILLS
ABOUT JOSH SCHUBERT
I graduated from Oregon State University in March of 2013 with a bachelors of science in Natural Resources Management. Since graduating I have had two jobs; one with Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation District (THPRD) in park maintenance, and the second with the City of Portland as a park ranger. I am a person who thrives in a fast paced environment where I can utilize my skill set to its maximum potential. At THPRD I honed my expertise working with the public and creating a positive and friendly environment. I also strengthened my prioritizing skills working individually as well as in small groups. While working as a park ranger for a year and a half I also made connections with the general public, as well as partnering agencies to enhance the security, safety, and enjoyment by our mutual customers. I enforced park and city codes by educating the public and issuing written warnings or exclusions to park patrons. I excel in clerical work such as writing professional emails, scheduling meetings, data entry, and detailed written reports. Throughout my education and work experiences I reflect character traits such as; trust, held high moral standards, resourcefulness, innovative thinking, and being driven to succeed. I have a desire to seize a career which I can be effective, efficient, and solve problems. I have a highly diverse background, working in retail, sales, landscaping, construction, park maintenance, and park enforcement. All of my past employers I have worked for have enjoyed working with me and have recognized my accomplishments and hard work ethic. I am always open to new opportunities and challenges in the workplace, please send me a message if you have any questions or a job opportunity you think I would be interested in.
