How has your role evolved since you began with the company?
When I found Flexxaire, I was a stay-at-home mom with my youngest child just starting school. Flexxaire offered me a part-time position as a production assistant, allowing me to work four hours a day with flexibility for family needs. As the years went by, my hours and responsibilities grew. I am the type of person who loves to be busy and continuously seeks new challenges, so as other employees moved on, I took on quite a few of their responsibilities to add to my own. After 21 years, I still feel very fortunate to work at such an awesome company and with a great group of people. This is a place that allows you to thrive if you have the desire to do so.
