A personable, highly skilled worker with extensive experience in office management and support.
Organized, hard-working and detail-oriented. Trained in Accounting. Capable of handling
challenging situations. Learns new systems quickly. Experienced in a wide range of industries in
part courtesy of a 25+ year career with Internal Revenue Service. Currently looking for long-term
employment with growth potential.
Accomplishments
• Solved a time lag issue with a distributing company's product order and fulfillment system. Instead
of being a week behind, the client's in-house sales reports for the week were used to update the
order prior to delivery. This resulted in a more timely response to the client's needs in filling their
shelves. (Whitehorse)
• Improved product quality by devising and implementing checksheets for employees to utilize on the
job. Not only did it improve process quality, but added the element of accountability. (NMB)
• Supported engineering staff by creating work flow diagrams with MS Visio as well as adding
complementary instructions and work flow checksheets for an essential and complex procedure.
This assisted the employees in their understanding of the correct process and the checksheets
provided management with accountability in case of error. (NMB)
• Developed materials to guide employees through job functions such as loading tankers with
biodiesel and unloading tankers filled with feedstock or with hazardous chemicals. These included
detailed instructions on an easy to read checksheet that, when used properly, documented
adherence to safety procedures as well as employee accountability. (NMB)
• Implemented a perpetual inventory record keeping system for certain supplies to minimize
shortages. (NMB)
• Analyzed a select group of program files for closure data. Results implied a systemic error within the
national reporting system. Initiated the process for the eventual successful correction of the
programming flaw which resulted in more accurate data capture for management decisions. (IRS)
• Established a reputation of being “fair” even when in an adversarial position. I firmly believe a smile
and a friendly manner can go a long way to paving the communication highway no matter the
persons and positions involved. (IRS)
