a few quick thoughts...

i would put the multitasking, working under pressure, leadership etc in the HIGHLIGHTS section

for the summary you've got 'hard working' doubled up twice in a short time, instead have something like "I am hard working and take a sense of pride in what I do. I enjoy learning new skills and accomplishing tasks."   (note changed spelling of accomplishing)  you really need a few more sentences in the summary if you can

capital L for Matrix Logistx and C for Pauley Construction

get a space in between Ft. and Carson

throughout should be all one word (in your first work experience section)



Did you see my dad on dogfights yet?
I'll be seeing you face to face possibly next month.

use spell check and do not repeat what you have already typed
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?
