Summer Faison
Mechanicsville
Summary
I am a very passionate and hard worker in anything I do, I am very determined and disciplined. Although I do have a soft spot for kids, especially ones who often don’t get as much help as they need or get overlooked. I would absolutely love being able to get into a job where I can help them and let them know they are seen and heard. I also love riding horses, dancing, hunting, fishing, and going to truck shows. I have three Labrador retrievers; Lainey, Oakley, and Ginger and I love taking them on adventures. I am prepared to work hard in anything I do in the future.
