Summary
I believe my strong communication skills can not only make situations easier but can reduce stress on everyone involved. Communicating is the best way to move forward in a good and positive manner. I am a team leader who is positive, outgoing and energetic. I believe in encouraging others and finishing projects quickly but more importantly effectively. I stand by the old saying “ Trust but verify” on anything and everything. I have had close to 20 years in Sanitation, Pest Control, Quality and food Safety in both human food and in the pet food industry. I keep in contact and have a lot of resources out there for advice on how they did or would go about solving a problem if I’m stumped on something I have never dealt with.
