Summary

I'm a lively and optimistic gal, with exceptional people skills who strives to make people feel happy and inspired. I have a dedicated work ethic, having 10+ years' experience in customer service and sales, I'm a confident person who takes pride in managing all tasks with efficiency and accuracy. I'm comfortable in fast-paced environments, always willing to learn and enthusiastically takes on new challenges. And although these days I'm typically behind the camera - I'm not afraid of the camera or to put myself out there. I love being an imaginative person who keeps crafty and creative, in and outside of work. I have a keen eye for detail in art, craft and design.
