The CK Daily – Meet Mandy!
Hi everyone! I’m Mandy and I serve as an Account Manager at CablesAndKits. Being a part of CK for over 12 years brings back so many fun memories! From the start, it has been nothing short of fun and full of laughter. From the endless amount of fun office pranks, cook-outs, free-for-all food court Fridays, CORE carts, fog machine Fridays… CK has always made work fun.
I am very proud of my time served at CablesAndKits – over the years they have not only challenged me professionally but have also allowed me to dabble in a few different positions here. Understanding so many facets of the company has helped me grow professionally and I am so thankful for that!
Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
Mandy
