I lead by example and train from experience. I\'ve learned to know when the method is not as important as the end result and when it is. I am often the \"go to\" person for answers because if I don\'t know, I will find out. Beta tester for program enhancements and the CPR/AED emergency contact for my area of the company. Specialties: As an iron distance triathlete and sports shooter I put the same dedication and drive into my sports that I do into any projects on which I work. I try to maintain that drive and desire to perform at my personal best in all areas of my life. Being an ironman triathlete has taught me that patience and perseverance will pay off. “You’re not obligated to win. You’re obligated to keep trying to do the best you can every day.” -Marian Wright Edelman
