Summary

After almost 15 years of being self employed in our Eurolight Store in Nowra, was ready to let it go & head back out on the field.

Have missed being out and about, meeting with clients & chasing sales. Have kept up with the media industry & have more marketing tools now compared to before & with business experience, think that could be an asset to other businesses and their advertising.

Have always been a results oriented person, needing very little supervision. Love working in a team environment. Quick to learn & always pushing to finish & succeed.
