About

Highly motivated professional with administrative, human service and customer service background. Management and supervisory experience. Strong planning and organizational skills. Super efficient multi-tasker with superior time management skills. I see myself as a valuable team player, always willing to lend a hand or go that extra mile. I am always respectful, empathetic and loyal to those I serve and work for. I have a very strong work ethic and believe this to be ingrained in me. My computer skills are pretty solid and I have worked in several office environments. I welcome changes and challenges and am a true believer that progress usually happens outside your comfort zone. Oh, and I love all things Disney! :)
