Job title – Software Support Representative

Whats the last picture you took with your phone?  My food – I love nothing more than a good meal that tastes as good as it looks.

Best compliment you have received?    Being told that I am a good friend because friends are important to me.

What is your perfect pizza?    Hawaiian pizza with a side of ranch.

What is your best childhood memory?   Any time I was on the stage as a dancer.  I learned so much during that time outside of dance while getting to enjoy what I loved the most!

What do you feel most proud of?    Going straight to college after high school and getting my degree.  That was not something that was common in my family growing up.

What is your favorite music?    I like all kinds of music – just not a big fan of country.  Of course I love any music that you can dance to!

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go and why?     I would love to go to Hawaii – I love tropical places and have heard so many great things about Hawaii and how beautiful it is there!

If you could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be?     My iPhone (my life is in there between my contacts, calendar, email, music, etc), my dog, my fuzzy blanket that I sleep with every night, my journal given to me by a friend, and my Beats headphones.

Why did you choose this profession?     I had a background in working at a dance studio – in the classroom and the office.  While I had not used Jackrabbit before, I understood the need of what the studio owners and office managers.  I also like puzzles – sometimes the answer to a ticket is not something simple.  It takes troubleshooting and piecing things together to figure out the issue.

What’s your strongest personal quality?    Perfectionist – sometimes this can be a double edged sword.
