Summary

During my time as an educator, and before that in the food and beverage industry, there was cultivated in me a strong commitment to the success of others, the dedication to superior customer service, and the importance of teamwork. My ability to motivate myself and others has been instrumental in successfully managing various projects, insisting on accuracy, quality, and consistency.

My combined 30+ years of experience in education and hospitality have honed an excellence in communication, a knack for conflict resolution, a strong but positive leadership style, and a dedication to customer satisfaction, all the values necessary to make me well suited for any field. I am a lifelong learner, ready to bring my abilities to your company and become a valuable member of your team.

Accomplishments

You will find an early sample of my publishing work here. It is an anthology of short stories written by one of my 8th grade classes. Students wrote the stories and provided the artwork. I edited all copy, designed and created the book, and had it self-published.
