About Me:
My greatest business strengths are my passion and continual drive to learn. I want to see the community grow, prosper and thrive with positive and creative resources, businesses and artists.
In five years I would like to be... continuing to promote and grow the local economy while creating a wonderful quality of life for those who live, work and visit here.
The best advice I’ve ever received is... to never stop learning! Always look for the opportunities!
I chose this particular business because I have always had a

and magazines to interning at a television station and at the Coast Convention and Visitors Bureau, I gained a wide range of experience which led me to my job here.
