What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated project manager with a strong background in overseeing teams and ensuring client satisfaction. With over 15 years of experience in various roles, I have honed my skills in project management, customer service, and logistics. My journey began in the hospitality industry, where I learned the importance of attention to detail and customer care.
In my current role at Quest Drape, I have successfully managed multiple projects, ensuring that all client expectations are met with precision. My ability to assemble and oversee logistics for promotional shows has been a significant asset, allowing me to thrive in fast-paced environments. I take pride in my work ethic and my commitment to delivering exceptional results.
Outside of my professional life, I am self-motivated and driven to succeed. I enjoy personal vehicle maintenance and home repairs, which reflect my hands-on approach to problem-solving. I am eager to continue growing in my career and take on new challenges that allow me to leverage my skills and experience.
