I am a polished professional with over 15 years’ experience in an administrative capacity (over 8 in an executive assistant capacity.) I strive to perform all my duties with excellence and consider my loyalty, strong work ethic and integrity to be among my strong points. Considering my abilities to prioritize and juggle multiple tasks effectively, to work independently or as part of a team, and my exceptional communication skills – I am very much a “people person” - I am confident that I have the qualifications which you seek.
Due to family health issues and subsequent duties, I resigned from my last full-time employer, The CBE Group. During the last several years, in addition to caring for my elderly mother, I have worked a long-term contract job and assist seniors residing at the Lutheran Towers Senior Living Facility. However, I have now fulfilled my familial obligations and find that I can once more commit to a long-standing position. I am currently working temporary assignments with several agencies.
