  • Self-motivated, with a strong sense of personal responsibility.
  • After becoming pregnant I went out of work on disability from complications due to the pregnancy and from there I chose to stay home to raise my kids. It was also more practical financially as the cost of daycare was too expensive and the amount of doctors appointments that our son had was alot due to being born premature. I am now looking to get back to work again and am willing to learn.
  • I have organizational skills , cashier skills, management experience.
  • I have worked with computers doing many different things. Ex: creating signs for display for products , printing tags for product pricing, working in clothing retail and running registers.
