deadline.

able to stay calm during stressful situations. I love the whole concept of working together as a team and rejoicing with other team members after successful
accomplishments.

that they can be overcome.
Hobbies and Interests
I love people and getting to know more about them and helping them when they need it
gives me more joy than just about anything else. I have served as master of ceremonies or auctioneer at countless charity events helping raise millions of dollars in the process.
I enjoy reading and learning all about new things as well as all the things going on in our ever-changing world.
