My most valuable strengths are my ease in communication with others, exceptional relationship building skills and persistence. I am loyal hard working and very determined, with a positive can do attitude, which I feel is an asset to any organization. I have always been passionate about sales and account management and see both industries as very people orientated, competitive and fast paced. My goal is to add value to any job I am working on and to broaden my knowledge and skills in these areas.
