A: To go ahead an join us, I came in to DTE with minimal acknowledge of landscaping and with time I have learned and continue to learn about this industry and it has been something I enjoy, whether it’s in the office or out in the field women will enjoy it, if a men can do this us as women can do as well.
Q: What are your future goals here at DTE and how do you plan to accomplish them?
A: I love being an office manager but one of my goals is to become either an account manager or maybe even a branch manager 😊 accomplishing them by getting more involved, taking any kind of trainings/courses that I have to learn more so that I can become one of the best 😊
