- Dedicated to upholding Galileo's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion and actively seeking out opportunities to promote these values throughout our enterprise systems projects.
- A visionary collaborator and independent contributor. You can collaborate with others towards a creative vision but have no issues tackling projects alone.

You focus your own professional development on understanding new enterprise systems as well as configuration and administration for enterprise tools such as Salesforce and ServiceNow.
