Why did you choose to work for DZCONNEX?

The autonomy, the creativity, the development opportunity, and the people. My first boss at the organization, Jon Grosso, ROCKED and I learned something new from him every day to help my teams achieve success. 

Why did you choose the career you have?

I wanted to be in a sales role that was challenging and had problem solving aspects to it, while being able to live in different places and develop my career path. I have worked in the industry for 30+ years, have worked in about 20 different “staffing” roles, with four “staffing” companies, and lived in five different countries while doing it. The journey has just begun!
