RssVibrant and Varried!

I have an eclectic background with very strong focus on customer service. With my most recent company, I have risen through the ranks from novice airline sales representative to air and hotel Quality Management in less than two years. Before that I worked hard and learned quickly, progressing from a pharmaceutical research office's temporary receptionist to the company's youngest Senior Research Coordinator. My strong work ethic demands putting forth absolutely the best effort for any employer, and I am excited to put my skills to work for you, as well.
