Tammy (Jackson) Sotelo
Profile
I spent over ** years in the Trade Show Industry, taking on a variety of roles that taught me how to stay organized, flexible, and people-focused. Three years ago, I deided to try something new and transitioned into a remote Customer Service Role, where I’ve really enjoyed helping customers and solving problems from home. I work well both independently and as part of a team, and I’m at my best in a positive, fast-moving environment where there’s always something to learn.
