Freeport,TX

Summary

Growing up in a family business, learning customer service at an early age. My grandmother secured a 100,000 loan with First State Bank in the early 60's to build the store. (unheard of at the time as a woman) We traveled weekends to Texas lakes so my grandfather could fish, while my grandmother and I would purchase lake lot properties, as to my passion for the 2nd home market.

Growing up in small towns to just off 610 loop in Memorial/Spring Branch, as well as Dammam Saudi Arabia as a teenager, we traveled to several surrounding countries. Seeing Dubai when it was only two buildings and the Kuwait oil fields before the fires.

Reliable, top-notch sales associate with outstanding customer service skills and relationship-building strengths. Dedicated to welcoming customers and providing comprehensive service. In-depth understanding of sales strategy and marketing techniques.
