In My Own Words
I am a huge people person that loves to work hard play hard! I have found myself working hard at a job so that I can afford to do the things that I love. I have realized that I would like a job that involves the things I love! With experience in Marketing, Sales and Project management I have found myself with experience that I can use to help any business grow. My favorite part about any job is building relationships with the people that I help and the clients I serve. I am focused on putting my passion and skills to good use whether it is helping the Thailand rangers stop the Rosewood trafficking epidemic or even trail cleanups along my very favorite trails. If you feel as though I could be of help to your company and would like to grow with me, let me know!
