Mardel always had one more thing to say before the game could start, and once it started, she was the first to speak every time. When asked what she wanted to be when she grew up, her answer was consistently, "I want a job where I get to talk with people all day!" It was while enrolled in the CC & PR program that she learned there was a dream job for her: Account Manager.
Relationship building has always been Mardel's forte. She prides herself on being able to listen and learn to understand the client's needs. Sometimes it takes a bit of digging and asking "why?" and "what is the goal we are trying to achieve?" Her ability to communicate has always been her secret sauce.

Mardel thrives when she is working in her element, surrounded by a team of passionate, talented colleagues. When she isn't at the office, you'll find Mardel and family at the playground or frequenting a local market.
