My job history has provided me with challenging positions that have taught me how to thrive in stressful environments with conflicting demands. I continue to seek new challenges which allow me to be operationally strategic and a key team contributor. I believe success is achieved by maintaining a strong work ethic, placing importance on all tasks no matter how small, and remaining authentic to who I am.
