McKenna Reid

I am a graduate of the Mining Engineering Technologist Program at Cambrian College, where I graduated on the Dean’s Honour Role.  I excelled in my courses and labs and found that I had an interest in all aspects of the program and all facets of this career. While doing my Hard Rock Common Core certification I successfully completed all modules and obtained proficiency on all equipment on which I was trained.  I am also a graduate of the Primary Care Paramedic Program at CTS Canadian Career College, where I was also on the Dean’s Honor Role.    Through my training and work experience as a Primary Care Paramedic, as well as my training in the Mining Engineering Technologist Program, I have a strong working knowledge in health and safety and maintaining a safe working environment.       

Through previous work experience and my placement, I have developed excellent time management skills, the ability to multitask and work under pressure and deadlines, and the ability to work both independently and within a group setting.  I have developed interpersonal communication skills that allow me to work with my colleagues, take direction, and interact with new people.  I feel that these are all assets that would be beneficial for this position.  I am eager to learn new skills that this position requires and feel that my past experiences would allow me to learn effectively and efficiently.
