Summary

I am an effective leader who continuously strives for growth and improvement. My leadership philosophy revolves around empowering my team to become self-sufficient and confident in their abilities, which, in turn, helps me refine my leadership skills. I believe that true leadership success is demonstrated when your team surpasses you in performance.

My leadership style is rooted in kindness, encouragement, and belief in others. Colleagues and team members have recognized and appreciated my ability to inspire them to become better versions of themselves. My “pep talks” are especially impactful, helping individuals realize their potential and gain confidence.
