Customer-focused professional with track record of success in responding to customers' needs in accordance with procedures. I am eager to take on new challenges and embrace every opportunity to learn from all experiences both career and personal, with a passionate enthusiasm. I choose to view what some may perceive as problems, as challenges and actively seek alternate means to achieve the desired outcomes through rational thought processes. I relate easily and respectfully with peers and consider that my strong communication and excellent social abilities enable me to effectively communicate with people on a range of issues.
