Summary

I am currently looking to reenter the workforce. I repeated my phlebotomy course and have since received my certification from Tallahassee Community College. The course requires 30 successful venipuncture sticks and 10 finger sticks in order to pass the course. That is the most current experience I have besides what I did in New York. It was part of the training I received in New York which I enjoyed. I have worked in the banking industry for many years as well but did not include that information since it is not relevant to the position I am seeking. Reliable individual with skills and experience as Laboratory Technician. Smart and committed to job well done and offering exceptional drive.
