About Me

I am a focused, self-motivated individual with a great deal of ambition. My integrity allows me to work to goals set by others as well as personal goals and I have the confidence to act and make decisions through my own understanding and knowledge. I enjoy working as a part of a team as this enables everyone to get involved and benefit from the collective information fed through the group as well as aiding further awareness and progression.

I excel at verbal communication with clients, colleagues, management and other services we are required to engage. Regarding management, I have the ability to progress and reinforce management teams in order to enlarge company productivity and efficiency.

I have 5 kids; all grown up heading to university and working. I also have a younger son who is still in college .
I myself have a son with many disabilities and I am able to cope with the stress and needs of the child if necessary. Having a son with needs has taught me to have much patience and teaches the self values of life being open minded and grateful.
