Summary

Success is my largest motivation, in all forms, for myself, the team, and the dealership. During my college career, I utilized every opportunity to sharpen and polish my skill set. In Business Management, tenacity is paramount. When a goal or measure is presented, my first priority is exploring all avenues and resources in order to succeed. I believe taking every opportunity to educate yourself is the key to longevity in this industry, one that is ever-evolving with new information. When faced with difficult circumstances, resilience is inherent, and I welcome a new opportunity to grow and learn new facets of the industry. While in sales I have taken opportunities to learn different and effective strategies to influence a customer base while providing excellent product knowledge. With my extensive employment history pertaining to client service, learning how to effectively assess customer needs and provide goods and services most suited to them is a polished quality I possess. My proficiency in communication and service has allowed me to tailor every customer interaction in order to provide a positive and memorable experience.
