Angie Seaman’s Summary

Affiliate management professional with experience in managing multiple programs through outsourced management at a technology platform provider, with an extensive background in retail client service and management.

I am resourceful and forward thinking. I tend to think in terms of bigger concept and what impact what we do today will have on tomorrow. I'm more than willing to jump in and get my hands dirty with whatever needs to be done, and bring enthusiasm and a high level of effort to the table, eager to put a game plan together and move the ball forward on opportunities.

How and why are important to me. How things work, why we're doing things the way that we do them and how can we make it better, easier, more efficient. I pick up technology quickly and I love learning new things.
