3. What excites you in your current job?
I love helping people! If I do my job correctly everyone is better off! I get to see people at their best! I can make a difference in a company and an individual and help make things better. I love that!

19. How do you determine or evaluate success?
I think success is knowing what you want and going after it! It does not have to be a high profile job or a lot of money. It can be raising positive kids or enjoying what you do every day. I do think we have to set goals and continue to grow to be successful people, but success is very different from one person to another!

22. What qualities should a successful manager possess?
I think a manager is a team captain. They should be approachable and have a good understanding of the skills needed by their team. They should be someone that can bring out the best in people and encourage their team to achieve goals both individually and as a team. I think a manager gains the respect of the group by being able and willing to help out when needed and represent their team when dealing with upper management.

24. What two or three accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction?
Working my way through college was a great accomplishment of my youth. Starting my own profitable company was a dream come true. Marrying a wonderful Godly man and having two beautiful children has topped the list!

25. In what kind of work environment are you most comfortable?
I love a fast- paced, challenging and ever changing environment. I get bored easily and need many new challenges. I also thrive on working with people and helping others.
