always been a great passion to me.
When I worked for the City of Lenoir, I was exposed to new and innovative

Project, Human Resource, and Strategic Management as well as Supervisory
Training and many other courses related to this position. I have strong
interpersonal, as well as both verbal and written communication skills.
Working with people has always been my strong point as I have an
overwhelming desire to help people.

competitive business strategy. My personal beliefs are in line to be as
