OBJECTIVE
As an employee of Nautilus for 17 years (until we decided to expand our family 5 years ago), I am both
experienced and knowledgeable in the areas of customer service and sales. My passion is to encourage
others to live a healthy lifestyle, making choices to continually grow in mind, body, and spirit. I am a goal
oriented individual who achieves success by prioritizing personal integrity, company loyalty, and sincere
kindness to employers, co-workers, and clientele. I have over a decade of sales experience and believe
that my success thus far comes from the encouragement I have received from others as well as my
willingness to share that encouragement in a team oriented work environment. I am seeking a position
where I can utilize my experience, personality, and work ethic to be an integral part of the growth and
success of an organization.
