Summary

Describing one’s character is quite the challenge, so I took a short-cut and asked those closest to me to think of adjectives, which best identify my personality traits. They said, I am kind, bubbly, intelligent, patient and the perfect addition to any team. I would add to this, I am eager to increase my skill set, ready for hard work and excited to be independent. I have great time management and people skills based on my experience in salon environments (e.g hair on campus) and work well with all ages based on my history working in retail (pagani). I have also had in depth experience in customer service and have a range of communication and tech savvy skills from preforming salesperson jobs as well as a few assistant manager jobs. I am ready to work in a team environment or independently when necessary and would love to join your team!
