Objective and Experiences:
It has been a pleasure and a great learning experience to have worked in the fields and
professional backgrounds that I come from. My most recent position as a Sales & Finance
Manager for an Automobile Dealership in Abbotsford, for over eight years, has taught me
many useful and strategic sales and finance techniques. These tools have helped me to
achieve a high level of profitable sales and product knowledge. I also currently work as a
Life Insurance Agent and I am licenced through the Insurance Council of BC. My work as
a representative in that field has taught me a lot in the form of sales and other rewarding
techniques.
I also have a background in Acting and Professional Image Consulting. I have worked on
movie and television sets, photo shoots and was also a Personal Shopper/Stylist to many
great clients in the Vancouver area. My creative side has been essential in providing
proper and creative promotional aspects towards my career. I have a professional attitude
towards everything, but also enjoy building strong relationships with enjoyable people in
the industry.
