Seneschal, Barony of Wyewood


****************************************************************************************************************
I am applying for the open seneschal position.  Here is my current SCA resume with a little about what is going on currently.  I really enjoy Wyewood and really hope I can help grow the barony and coach new leaders. This is home for me and many people in the barony and I really enjoy serving it anyway possible.

I am a second generation participant of the SCA.  Throughout my time in the SCA I have taught and volunteered for many different SCA events including Feast of St bubba in An tir, Middle kingdom Academy of defense and Pentamere Academy of defense.  I ran a successful Baronial evet for Wyewood, and coached another for a decent success.  For my real life jobs I have been a manager for 4-12 people in fast pace environment, and I work logistics currently where keeping up on paperwork and doing follow ups is vital to keep customers happy.  I have excellent leaderships skill, and I know how to delegate to get the job done properly and quickly over just doing it all myself. I am currently creating the first ever rules for Youth rapier under the age of 14, but those are almost done to be passed off and signed for.  I travel a lot and make sure Wyewood is heard when ever someone gets an award when I am there.
