Leadership and Talent Acquisition are my two greatest passions professionally.Skills assessments would tell you that I am a strong "I" on the Disk profile. They would also tell you:I am a proactive, and assertive individual. I am a self-starter who can accept reasonable risk, adversity, and confrontation when pursuing objectives. I welcome new challenges and opportunities and set realistic expectations. I am naturally people-oriented, upbeat and communicative, consider myself to be a strong motivator, networker and promoter. I thrive in a fast-paced atmosphere, work well under deadlines, am adaptable, can easily shift priorities, and I finish tasks before starting others. I enjoy investing in my team members and their development, and I enjoy diversity in my day-to-day.I am comfortable with decision-making, and I am traditionally a rule-follower.
