Benjamin Parks Jr.
A dedicated professional that is highly motivated and driven, an enthusiastic leader, and someone who gets excited about new and fresh ideas. I pride myself on my work and always look for ways to extend a hand. I have proven to be reliable, efficient, and competitive in my work history and I am excited to begin a new journey with a company that shares those same values.
