I am a detail oriented team player with strong organizational skills and 12 years IT expedience. I am organized and dependable with the ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy.
My curious nature means I actively listen and ask questions to ensure that the solutions positioned is in line with Client objectives and will facilitate their success both as an organization and individual. I am passionate about people and endeavor to provide a differentiated service to Clients. I am tenacious, dedicated to taking action and willing to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. Besides sales I enjoy being involved in company initiatives aimed at improving people, processes, culture and experiences.
I am happy when I get to share travel stories and life lessons over a glass of wine and a good meal.
