ABOUT ME
I am a problem solver, driven
by curiosity. I ask a lot of
questions, and am thorough
about understanding the
unfamiliar. One of my
strongest assets is my ability
to network and maintain
healthy business
relationships. Through a wide
array of job
experiences I have learned
how to be versatile, a fast
learner, and work hard while
having a good attitude.
In my free time I enjoy
reading and running.
