Beth Goodwin

Bainbridge Island,WA

Summary

Beth has a unique ability to tune into the person in front of her. Whether that is a child or a homeopathy client, she listens and responds intuitively with enthusiasm and kindness. Her vast experience teaching yoga (29 years), working one on one with clients as a massage therapist and homeopath, being present to children and holding the intention to serve others makes her a great asset to any company. She has an excellent work ethic, truly desires to help others and has excellent organizational skills. She is the kind of employee who is ready to show up and do what is needed to make the day go well. This "can do" attitude brings relief to any work environment. "What can I do? What do you need done?" is the ongoing aim. She's a joy to have around!
