"I worked for a company that did have to shut down for a couple of months during the pandemic. But we used that time to basically reinvent ourselves. We broadened our ability to deliver parts, instituted and refined our online presence, and initiated all kinds of covid policies. The pandemic made us stronger. I expect to face any challenge at Continental with that same kind of determination."
