I had the pleasure of working with Cindy during my position as a gadget buyer and she was with Jokari. Cindy was great to work with as she understood both sides of the business. She always worked hard to get me what I needed in a timely manner. Her product presentations were very detailed and provided the necessary information for decision making. Cindy was very easy to get in touch with and always happy to assist me with whatever I needed. Cindy is a top notch sales professional!
