Additional Information
I am a hardworking woman who has been in two different countries. The first (USA) the place where I was born and raised but didn't get the chance to work and get to know all my skills. The other (Mexico) where I arrived without speaking the language, but was able to learn, thrive and obtained a Bachelor's degree. I am determined, responsible, focused, disciplined, ambitious, committed and diligent. My goal is to always look for the company's success and I am able to adapt myself to any work environment. You won't regret having me on your team.
