Summary

I like to be flexible, hard worker ready to learn and contribute to team success in anyway needed. I'm a hardworking employee with customer service, multitasking, and time management abilities. I think it's important to giving every customer a positive and memorable experience so they know they are taken care of.

I love my free time away from work, I like to play and watch basketball. Spring and Summer are the greatest seasons in my opinion. I'd like to do more traveling and hiking but a daily walk in the sun is as great as it gets.
