How did you first hear about Spot?: A referral from my brother’s friend
What made you want to work at Spot and what keeps you here?: I enjoy the energy at Spot and the industry is always keeping me on my feet. There are days that are very tough, but to be able to solve issues for customers and provide great service is what keeps me going.
