Ask Mark Gray and Christine Travaglini if I can sing | | --- | **Who or what is inspiring to you?** | Inspirational is my Dad.  He spent over 30 years selling air time for Radio.  He worked station side and also in the rep business.  Most of his career was with CBS. What inspires me most about my Dad is he was the same at work as he was at home.  I have met so many people who worked with him use words like gentleman, kind, available, honest, generous and fair. I am tougher than Dad in my directness but I hold the same values....investing in people and hold integrity above all else. | | --- | **What attribute or skill has helped you the most in your career?** | Tenacity, hard work and perseverance.  I am not a natural salesperson but I have always worked hard, tried to be knowledgeable and focused on delivering what I promise.  I focus on being direct and honest when I work with my clients and customers. I care deeply about doing a great job...and I think my clients and customers know that | | --- | Topics: [Katz Media Group](https://insights.katzlive.com/womens-history-month-2019/topic/katz-media-group), [Katz Radio Group](https://insights.katzlive.com/womens-history-month-2019/topic/katz-radio-group), [Women's History Month 2019](https://insights.katzlive.com/womens-history-month-2019/topic/womens-history-month-2019), [Entercom Radio](https://insights.katzlive.com/womens-history-month-2019/topic/entercom-radio), [Jana Cosgrove](https://insights.katzlive.com/womens-history-month-2019/topic/jana-cosgrove) ## About Us Anyone can make an impression.  Influence is earned.
