Additional Information

  • EXPERIENCE: I have a great working relationship with many domestic and international vendors that I have worked closely with throughout the years. The mindset that I have is “if I help them, they will in turn help me”. I have received several referrals for new private shipments based on prior client experiences. I strive to ensure that the customer experience is what matters the most and it should always be a positive one. With current needs changing daily, it is very important to work together as a team no matter where someone is located (remote or an office). Having weekly meetings for current topics or just to check-in is key to help morale and make someone feel less “lost” especially when things become stressful. Being a manager is not always about telling people what to do, but helping the team grow to their fullest potential.
