Eric Coulson’s Summary
I am an Attorney who is also an officer in the US Army Reserve. I have been mobilized and deployed to Iraq. When I return to the United States in the latter half of 2007 I will need to find a new job. Interested in relocating and not necessarily only interested in jobs as an Attorney. My Legal Training and Education will be a bonus to any employer they will benefit from my analytic skills as well as my excellent writing.
My military experience gives an employer and experienced and seasoned leader in high stress situation, with the ability and willingness to make decisions and take responsibility for those decisions.
I would be an asset to any organization that is looking for a flexible team player who knows how to follow through on a task or project.
