Euronet Worldwide | Client Services Supervisor
BEGINNING INTERESTS
I have always enjoyed working with people and love the satisfaction of solving a problem. In my current capacity at Euronet, I am allowed the opportunity to have the best of these two worlds.
CAREER EVOLUTION
I began working in the banking industry as a part-time bank teller while in college. This position led to an opportunity to work in the ATM Department at First Commercial Bank in the mid 90’s. While there, I met my friend and mentor Debra Wayne. Debra is the one that introduced me to Euronet and felt it was a natural transition to take my banking customer service skills along with my “behind the scenes” ATM knowledge to work for a company that develops software for electronic financial transactions.
LOVE THE WORK
I respect and enjoy the people I work with directly and others in the office as well as my customers from around the world. However, a close second would have to be the opportunity to travel. This job has given me the ability to see places around the world I would never have imagined I would get to experience. Spending time in locations like Budapest, Guam, Sri Lanka and Papua New Guinea have allowed me to experience different cultures and develop a broader world view.
SURPRISING BUT TRUE
You can find a career that fits your individual personality and fulfills you professionally. There are opportunities out there that can challenge you daily, allow you to continually learn – I still learn something new regularly about our software, even after 25 years – have fun and create relationships.
These wonder women are redefining what “full STEAM ahead” means in Arkansas. With exciting careers in science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics – each reflects WIT (Women in Tech) and true grit for making the most of every opportunity. Here’s to the powHER of knowledge.
