Sydney Edwards

My name is Sydney Edwards. I am a 27 year old woman with some college experience. I am hungry and itching to do more with my life. I want to be a part of something that brings fulfillment to others and myself. My personal goal is to be a part of a company that feels like a team, and contribute by being a team player. Specifically, a team player who is occupied with making the team the best it can possibly be. While also taking the initiative to become a leader. I want to be someone that their peers look up to. I am ready and willing to become an advocate for a company where I can show and contribute my talents to the greater good.
