I benefit from the organizational skills and initiative befitting for employment in various fields. My capabilities are abundant and my aspiration is strong. I believed very strongly in staying home with while raising my family. I was a stay at home parent and I believe that is definitely what is lacking in our society today. Great parenting skills are not learned at a university. I attribute my talent for realizing multifarious tasks, my resourcefulness, my leadership skills and my focus on raising three children to become the productive and masters at their trades that they are. My hobbies include but are not limited to painting, drawing, creative writing, cooking, piano playing and desktop publishing. I effortlessly adapt to new situations and so I'm a quick learner. I am proficient with many computer applications such as word processing and accounting programs and enjoy working with graphic programs such as Photoshop. Internet applications such as Explorer and Outlook are something I am very fluent with.
