Seeking a career in Sales that presents new challenges and the ability to compete with my peers, while being rewarded for my successes. I strive to provide service that far exceeds my customer's expectations through trust, innovation, and product knowledge. While delivering results for my employer, I personally like to measure my successes by having the largest commission check and the best sales numbers among my peers. I am very competitive, which is a factor that has fueled my numerous successes to date. I accept nothing less than to be the best and work for the best. My strengths are building strong customer relationships, managing time and motivating clients/customers to get it done, sooner rather than later and recognizing their best interest while trusting me for guidance. I have always been at the top in sales/productions in my professional career and would love the opportunity to continue that trend with your company.
