You are committed to delivering exceptional results. You enjoy setting expectations, deadlines and goals, and then blowing them out of the water. Whether you are managing a small, medium or large account, you will put your heart into it and go the extra mile, no matter what. When all is said and done, you are ready for more. You learn quickly from your mistakes and surround yourself with people who you can learn from.
