Innovate, Lead, Analyze, Succeed

My experience has taught me how to succeed in many different environments. Whether teaching 4th graders to add fractions, exceeding the expectations in a restaurant full of hungry people, integrating remote employees toward a common goal, or finding solutions to multi-departmental issues and implementing them, I have the ability and the experience to gather the people and information needed to find the right solution and achieve success.
