Project Coordinator at Lockton Companies
Project Coordinator at Lockton Insurance Brokers, LLC
I enjoy challenging scenarios that require learning a new skill or doing further research in order to accomplish a project. I listen more than I speak and always am eager to learn. My genuine concern for others is apparent in how I interact with them and go the extra mile. I work well in a team or on my own - whichever is needed to accomplish the job. I am good at analyzing areas that could benefit from improvements in efficiency as well as understanding the needs and wants of coworkers/clients.
