• Proactive & flexible with an ability to problem-solve and model grace under pressure.

• High ethical standards and professional conduct; experience dealing with sensitive

  information and situations.

• Willingness to travel frequently.

• An ability to laugh at oneself, care for your fellow team members, and bring your whole

  self to your work. It's just better that way.
