Recommendations

"When I first met Wendy I was immediately struck by her obvious passion for all things metal and was in awe of her extensive knowledge of the steel industry and market trends! While working in procurement at Contrx Industries, Wendy was by far the most responsive, enthusiastic, and personable sales rep I dealt with! Her knowledge, insight, and "can-do" approach always made my job a little easier. It's rare to come across a sales professional as invested and hardworking, yet extremely enjoyable to work with. I'd recommend anyone with a chance to work with Wendy to jump on it! She's that good!"
