SUMMARY A Mentor once told me, "if you want to be valuable to anyone or any organization, find a way to get sh%* done." Pretty sound advice, albeit it was my Dad, & I think I was 10 years old at the time. Since then I have focused on 3 key areas to drive success (what I still hold to be true in business today): relationships, accountability, & communication. What I Bring: 17+ years in Business Operations. I live & breathe for process & organization. I have a unique ability to stay calm under pressure & organize even the most chaotic of environments. My specialty is building & implementing operational strategies to maximize efficiency, growth, & profitability. Let me at the data! I'll tell you how productive the team is, how profitable the accounts are, how efficient the services are, & how to improve it all. Motto: If opportunity doesn't knock, we'll build our own door. What I Value: - The people we surround ourselves with & the relationships we build are the single biggest factor to success. - Building a culture focused on clarity, communication, shared values, & ACTION. - Staying curious, being a continuous learner, & mentoring others to develop future leaders. - Setting goals, bringing my positive energy every single day, & being successful while having fun together.
