I'm a positive and energetic person who strives for ways to provide my best in every situation. I'm a team player looking to help and support those around me, although I'm not afraid to stand alone and show my strengths. I work well with others, both in an office setting and out on assignments. I am a people person and enjoy finding strategies and solutions needed to accomplish clients’ goals. I was born in London and raised in Seoul, which instilled in me a love of traveling, exploring my city, and meeting new people. It has also given me a worldly outlook that strengthens my connection with others and understanding of different perspectives. I enjoy the local Memphis arts and music scene and learning about the different lives that create it. I believe I would be a considerable asset to your company and would love to be given the opportunity to join your team.
