Since then I have accrued several years of experience in Customer Service, the IT, and Hospitality industries. I have worked on diverse global teams, in agile work environments, and in customer oriented help centers where critical thinking, and the everyday fast paced challenges of an ever developing technological world helped tremendously in my professional growth and experience.
