Problem Solver
Chris Hamilton
I am a young, ambitious individual that enjoys to be challenged mentally. I currently am employed by a food company where I am the head of R&D. I have always enjoyed solving problems. I am both a creative and analytical thinker. The reason I am interested in Ideaconnection.com is I have many interests and thought this site would give me an opportunity to solve problems outside my current field. Getting paid to solve the problems provides extra incentive for me. I enjoy learning and I would rather get paid to learn than have to pay to take classes. I am also very competitive. I am an excellent listener.
