My career has been quite diverse: from territory sales for a regional dairy to medical service sales/marketing/personnel management for an upstart on-site medical diagnostics provider to personal sales/sales management for an insurance company to business development/management for marketing agencies. All have provided a level of accomplishment for me, as well as personal growth and enjoyment.

I am currently looking for a career vehicle to apply this accrued skill set in my favorite place on the planet, Marquette, MI.

My degree in Speech Communications provided me the foundation to deal with the process of working with people, allowing me to sell/market intangibles, services, and consumer goods, providing solutions for a wide range of clients. Within this framework, I have developed teams to ensure that follow through has been complete, needs met, and satifaction achieved. It is a process that I have sincerely found enjoyable.

I am NOT one to merely settle for a job done, I strive for a job WELL done, something that I'm proud to put my name to. That is important to me -- getting the job done RIGHT. If an employer is interested in that sort of drive, that sort of mind-set, then I'm the person to come to.

I'll see to it that we'll set goals and standards for tangible, sustainable growth. I believe that with the correct approach, sustainable growth is not only achievable, but inevitable, as needs will be met and a relationship forged to grow upon.

I consider myself an astute individual, well-read, intellegent, able and willing to grow and learn to expand my horizons. My experience and background would be an asset to any serious company looking to excel.

I enjoy the outdoors and the simpler things in life. The scent of freshly bloomed lilacs. The soothing sound of a babbling creek. The excitement of coming across a bear or moose while stream fishing. The calmness of a walk during a gentle snowfall. Taking time to enjoy a good book. The joy of cooking. Keeping in touch with friends, old and new. All of which I take the time to do, and it centers me.
