I am very fortunate to have a career that intertwines with my passions. My outings normally consist of one-third ‘sniff’ walks with my beagle and two-thirds being inspired. I enjoy exploring new places, events and things.
I have taken on various responsibilities and at times created new job opportunities for myself, which overall lead to positive results for the company. I am always finding ways to develop myself and help to develop my fellow team members for the benefit of the company.
