Summary

I am a motivated individual with experience in customer service and sales. I feel i am skilled in building customer relationships and understanding customer needs. I have strong communication and interpersonal skills for providing superior customer service.

The past 40 years has seen me employed in the communications and security industries as well as retail and food delivery.

The past year has found me unable to continue with the dairy delivery business we own.

I have recently completed my RSA and RCG certificates and am looking forward to a new career in the hospitality industry.
