Bio
Melinda Bleeker
Seth is a person of integrity. He has always shown a high degree of professionalism when dealing with the general public. He would be a valuable addition to any organization that values integrity, professionalism, and loyalty.
Rebecca Travis
Seth has always had an intense work ethic striving to deliver his best in any endeavor. He always enjoyed learning new skills and was very gifted in all areas of education-math, sciences, language and creative arts. I recall that he took every advanced placement class offered and took his higher art courses as independent study when they would not fit in his full school schedule. He took advantage of gifted creative learning classes in biology and aviation at Kent State in the summer between his high school years because he genuinely appreciated opportunities to learn. Being responsible and dependable were traits valued in Seth as he followed through with commitments and did what was needed both in classes and clubs. I am sure that Seth would be a qualified and diligent employee as I have been assisted by him at Best Buy when I made purchases through the years since his days at school.
