Summary

I've been working in the wholesale plant industry for many years as a territory sales rep and area manager for a merchandising company maintaining plants in big box stores. It is time for me to change it up! I am looking to work for a company where I can learn new skills and become a valued member of their team. I am dependable, a self-starter and a team player with an excellent work ethic.
