Additional Information
I grew up a military brat.
Communication is a skill I honed through a lifetime of connecting with people from various backgrounds. Whether interacting with executives, colleagues, or frontline employees, I possess a natural ability to build rapport and establish open lines of communication.
I bring a global perspective to my work, having been exposed to different cultures, languages, and customs. This exposure has not only heightened my cultural intelligence but also instilled in me a deep appreciation for diversity and inclusion.
I approach challenges with a positive attitude, seeking opportunities for growth and improvement. My "military brat" upbringing has instilled in me a sense of duty and commitment, driving me to consistently deliver exceptional results.
Personally, I love learning new random things. Cooking, rock climbing, contemporary dance, hip hop, skateboarding…just to name a few…I will try anything once!
Current Professional/ Personal goal: Be of success and value in anything I do! Continuous learning!
