Jenny Weiss Email and Phone Number
I'm passionate about leaving the world a better place than I found it. I love to think big, but I'm equally effective at getting my hands dirty and diving into the details. I'm naturally curious and regularly seek out opportunities to learn. The two through-lines that connect all my previous work are social impact and my strong service-oriented empathy for customers and their needs.Top 5 Gallup/Clifton Strengths:Achiever | Responsibility | Intellection | Futuristic | Empathy
