After continuing with Amazon for a year or two, she would love to move on in the company and transition to a position having to do with their advertising and communication divisions. After working with Amazon this summer, she saw herself working with them long-term so we are excited to see where this company takes her and her career. When it comes to Tiffany and her attributes to our team, she is very easy to work with as she had an open mind and is comfortable with others taking control sometimes.

 

Tiffany has always been very creative and has a lot to bring to the table when it comes to design and ideas for Vino Vineyards. She is passionate about design and organization, so we are excited to have her on board to help with our mock company. Tiffany will do whatever it takes to make our customers happy, and provide them with excellent customer service from start to finish. She works very well in a busy environment, and can do well with planning ahead. We believe she will be a big asset to our team with her ideas for new events and promotions we can do at Vino, to ensure our guests are always happy.
