Summary

A predilection for new experiences with wide ranges of people has lead me through a history of performance, sales, service, and other customer-facing positions. The key to success in these fields has been a patient, understanding attitude towards the guests and coworkers who depend on me. Keeping a grounded, but lighthearted approach to tasks has helped me provide positive morale to the people I interact with throughout my workday.
