About Kris Kischer:
I am a graduate of the Ryerson Theatrical Production Program. My studies prepared me for the production of set designs; however, since graduating, I have acquired many more skills, learned through years of stage production, special effects and operating a successful manufacturing business for 16 years.
I also have extensive experience with shipping, receiving, freight, and operating small loading equipment. Further, I have a valid driver's license and an excellent driving record.
In addition, I am a hard worker, fast learner and can follow instructions well. I also work well with people of all ages and enjoy working in a fast paced environment.
