I monitored each client's court order to ensure compliance is being met, anywhere from drug testing frequency to community service hours
I was trained in Moral Reconation Therapy while working for the State Penitentiary as well.
Assistant Probation Officer
I was promoted from Drug Technician to Assistant Probation Officer after six months
While in that position, I assisted officers with paperwork, home visits, and caseload coverage

I conducted LSCMI assessments for our officers, which is our classification tool to help determine recidivism rates and appropriate level of supervision.
Drug Technician
I was first hired with the Probation Administration as a drug technician
I was having a difficult time obtaining an interview for a probation officer position
So, I became a drug technician to get noticed
I conducted observed urinary analysis tests on our probation clients, along with probation officer consultations and necessary paperwork.

Operations Manager
Maid for You Cleaning Services, LLC
- Current
I currently oversee the operations of our two branches, the first being the Lincoln area
The second branch in the business is basically every smaller town from Nebraska City to Lincoln, operating in the following towns: Auburn, Nebraska City, Brock, Syracuse, Unadilla and Peru
Although my time has been short, I have grown tremendously under this new role
I currently oversee 15 employees, managing the day-to-day operations of the business, which include the following: scheduling, payroll, human resources, supplies, customer relations and new client bidding
I am also in charge of marketing in this role; however, we do not push our business very hard outside of current client growth and referrals
We find that is the easiest way and most reliable way to find new business in our market
We work hard to keep and maintain our client relationships and that really allows us to propel and maintain our foothold in this competitive business
We have clients that have been using our services for 20 years, that says everything in terms of how we handle our business and the care we give our clients.
