Summary

I am a hardworking professional with experience in sales as well as habilitative service and support. I have years of experience and training in sales, and I went to school for Education. I have always enjoyed working with people in a variety of environments. I have a talent for relationship management, leveraging my understanding of human behavior to meet the needs of individuals intuitively and proactively. In sales, I consistently met and exceeded sales goals such as sales quotas, profit margins, and preferred credit sales. In care, while I didn't have sales quotas, my record spoke well from exhibited client growth. By building excellent rapport, I am able to open up clear communication with clients, as well as their families, which would lead to learning and overall improvement and quality of independence for the individuals, with whom I've worked. Whether sales, care, or education, the pattern that holds the same for me is working with people to achieve success for those I work with, as well as myself and the companies I represent.
