S U M M A R Y
An accomplished collections, sales, customer service and inventory control professional with over 30 years of experience making decisions, achieving goals, negotiating solutions, managing people and product inventories, and addressing the needs of clients – most recently within the commercial waste disposal industry, and previously within the automobile and hospitality industries. Prior to providing significant contributions to the less than 0.5% loss rate for the Capital Region’s most prominent independent provider of waste disposal services, the majority of the preceding fifteen+ years involved working in a very visible, highly responsible role for one of the Capital Region’s largest automobile dealers. Due primarily to corporate change, I am now looking to start a new career with a firm that may benefit from the experiences and skills I bring and offers an immediate opportunity with the prospect of future growth. As a proven performer, leader and team player, distinguishing attributes include outstanding work ethic, demonstrable organization and “people” skills, and meticulous management of people, products and processes.
