Summary

I was a Supervisor in the GEICO Internet Department and have shown for the last 6 years I can move numbers, motivate agents to reach goals, and continue to strive to do the best I can everyday for myself and the company.


While with Nikola, I was able to meet with dealers and customers alike in order to help resolve not only customer service issues (maintenance/warranty concerns, concerns with fueling, etc.), but also with sales portion with dealers in order to make a sale.
