Since college I have had many sales and corporate positions. I have diversified my experience with jobs in retail, financial services, insurance sales, rental management, direct sales, construction cost estimation and office management, real estate appraisal and most recently, business ownership. The most rewarding experiences have been those where I have been my own boss.
I have learned that once bitten with it, the entrepreneurial spirit is impossible to ignore. I have finally embraced it and have never been more fulfilled with my work. I look forward each day to the challenges and opportunities that truly define "business ownership".
Direct Sales: Sales merchandising, closing techniques, marketing & promotions, internet marketing, team management, training and recruitment.
Real Estate: construction cost estimation, tax revaluation, real estate appraisal, statistical modeling, GIS software applications, general construction knowledge. Also familiar with multiple software and programming applications spanning office, real estate and sales functions.
