About me..
I have a great deal of training and expertise in the customer service field. I have dealt with handling cash/opening and closing register, interacting with people, inventory count, organizing inventory, business janitorial services (ie: wiping down surfaces, cleaning bathrooms, etc.) I am a great team player and know how to work together with others. I handle myself very well in high-stress or fast pace situations. I am well spoken, humorous, polite, sweet, and very organized. I am committed to any task that is put in front of me and will not give up until it’s done correctly and efficiently.

Hobbies and Activities
I love to sing and dance, even if I’m horrible at it or look like a fool when doing so. I love making people laugh and smile. I always try to make people’s day a bit better with a little humor. I am the all time animal lover… If I had to choose between my significant other or my cat, well… sorry, hunny. Kidding! Maybe not.. Anyway, I enjoy outdoor activities. I love to garden, go on adventurous hikes, and travel. I am very athletic and knowledgeable in a lot of sports. My favorite being softball. I’ve been playing since I was five years old. I’m a fast learner and know how to make any work environment enjoyable not only for me but for others as well. Make the most out of what you have, when you have it.
