"I took my CliftonStrengths assessment back in 2014 and at first was surprised by the results. Coming from the Hospitality industry, it made no sense to me. Through development and coaching, I determined just how spot-on it was. The last six years have allowed me to fully understand and utilize these Strengths to guide me into a career that brings me immense satisfaction - where my best skills and qualities are used everyday to serve the community."
