I am a competitive, driven, results oriented professional with over 10 years in the retail and marketing industry, 3 of which were at
management level. I pride myself in always meeting and exceeding my professional goals, as well as company expectations. I
prioritize the importance of proper clienteling, following up with my clients and creating that business/client relationship which fosters
future business, and have established myself as a beacon with my employers.
I also work with different talent agencies performing a variety of tasks depending on the vendor. Some of these are:

It is very important for me to learn as much as possible about the product or service that I am promoting or selling for a vendor in
order to effectively relay this message to consumers. I have a very engaging personality and hold no drawbacks when it comes to
approaching passerby’s or potentially interested consumers. Some of the events and roles I have worked this year are:
