"I love the responsibility that comes with being successful as well as the stress and business lessons learned when my hard work results in an unsuccessful result. My love for over coming and problem solving mixed with my "lead by example" approach to every aspect in life carries over perfectly when describing the responsibilities required to be the director of operations."
