myself to be a team player and like to lead through example however I am just as
comfortably working alone and managing my own work load. I believe I thrive
under pressure which brings out the best in me. I take pride in everything I do and
believe if a job is worth doing its worth doing well. I have a broad skill set that
includes Customer Service and Sales both inbound and outbound as well as building
leading and training a team to high standards.
