When reviewing my resume, you will notice a gap in employment. My absence is due to me taking time to care for my children during the pandemic after separating from the military. My child-rearing experience has enhanced my talents in leadership, teamwork, patience, determination, and prioritization as I managed multiple schedules, home schooled two children, enforced rules and provided around-the-clock care during a global pandemic. I built positive and nurturing environments to support my children's social and emotional growth. Created and implemented daily routines for effective scheduling.
