Personal

Sojo is a people person and exceptionally perceptive in identifying customer needs and delivering solutions that exceed expectations. She makes us laugh, keeps us young, and has an amazing ability to make friends wherever she goes. However, she loses all these qualities when playing a mean, competitive game of table tennis.
