Alright, so we’re so thrilled to have Monica with us today – welcome and maybe we can jump right into it with a question about one of your qualities that we most admire. How did you develop your work ethic? Where do you think you get it from?
I believe in the power of me. I always set my personal goals that will influence others that I encounter to also be driven by self motivation and excellence that attaches to you as a person. Your personal behavior also inlines you with a strategic mind set. But I am always moving in an ethical way and providing the best situations, along with completing daily tasks. I enjoy what I do and my passion pulls me through.
