Summary

I am a career-oriented person looking for a new career path with a financial company who respects and appreciates its employees. You will find my financial experience serving clients and most recently managing financial professionals to be extensive and valuable. I have a positive outlook and approach to all I do as well as a creative problem solver.

My position as a Paramedic/ Firefighter, Customer Service Representative and most recently Financial Principal have given me valuable leadership experience not only in medicine, customer service, team management but relationship building as well. I believe I have an excellent skill set, with emphasis on attention to detail, that would allow me to contribute to your demanding environment.
