I think my best asset is that I am driven. Driven by success, driven by detail, and driven by a sense of purpose.
Very rarely do I let things fall through the cracks. Every t is crossed, and every i is dotted. I refuse to settle.
When you have a vision, a big event, it is always the details of those things that carry the mood with fans and participants. You have to give everything you have if you want to ask people to do the same.
Rachelle's Feedback

Good! You have highlighted two excellent areas of strength, but I would encourage you to expand on your response to make it clear how you are different from the other candidates for the position. Are you able to discuss how your passion for athletics has shown itself in your career, or provide an example of a time your determination has led to positive results?
