I am very active in my church I serve on the ministry team, choir, also I am the president of the Shepherd’s care ministry. I own a cleaning business and I play many roles in what I do to run a successful business. I work in the community alongside my pastor and first lady of our church with other participating members of our Shalom Baptist Church. I love making a difference in other people lives. I feel as though you can never know too much there is always room for growth to learn what you don’t know. Always do good to push to do better to become your best at what you do in life. I have compassion for what I do and dedicated to getting the task done. I am a very organized, dedicated, multi-tasker person who does not get stressed under pressure. I love what I do and take pride in my work. Thank you for taking the time out to consider me as a candidate for your company.
