Q: Could you tell me a little bit about yourself?
A: My Name is Aubree Jenkins-Gelok, I was born and have spent the majority of my life in Colorado. I have 3 brothers, so I grew up playing football in a dress. I am a wife, and mother of 3 boys, Jeremiah 9, Jessiah 2, and Jayce 8 months, (I’m still playing football in a dress!) I live on a Ranch where we raise pigs, cows, chickens and ducks! I have been in the telecommunication industry for 13 years. I started as an agent working at an Answering service in Denver, Co. Within 3 years at the Answering Service, I was promoted to office manager’s assistant, learning all aspects of the business including billing, sales, programming, customer service, and account management. In 2009 I left the Answering service and joined SkyStream where I became Executive Communication Specialist.
