Bio
Jose Martinez
I rarely come across truly customer oriented professionals who stand out like Maria. I have had the pleasure of knowing Maria for the past three years and have witnessed first hand the care and passion she provides to her customers. Her ability to empathize and truly connect with customers is unlike any I’ve seen before and has made a dramatic impact on her success. No matter how tense a situation, Maria always makes sure everyone leaves with a smile. It’s for this reason that Maria earns my highest recommendation.
