Having spent almost 4 years in our ranks at High Road, Preston has grown significantly from helping us manage receiving of parts and posting a few obsolete items on eBay to a full blown Database and e-Commerce Manager having fully developed two online stores and managing another while learning to develop processes and procedures and training direct staff under his responsibility. Intelligent with an acute understanding of the importance of communication, Preston has been a very valuable member of our team. Preston isn't done his learning as it is something he strives for everyday. I know going forward will introduce new challenges and growth for him that he will always find a way through.
