Sales And Operations
Summary
I am go getter and a quick leaner with attributes that can define me best as an industrious, high productive, motivated and a team player. Besides, I am well organized, time cautious and a results oriented person. In the recent past, I have developed a diverse set of qualities and skills in problem solving and team management which I believe can help add value to any organization. It is in this regards that I've always loved working alongside other talented like minded individuals who are willing to achieve great things for their employers. Finally, when tasked with any responsibility, I always take full ownership of difficult challenges whenever they occur.
