I am seeking a values-driven organization where I can leverage my communication and

Career leadership skills, while I continue to challenge my professional growth. While I am self-
objective directed, I thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment that fosters innovative, customer-
focused solutions and a results orientation.
Skill Storytelling is my strength. I support this through excellent communication (written, oral) and
summary/ interpersonal talents that allows me to understand the needs of customers and coworkers.
