Jazmin Beck

Kennett,Missouri

Summary

My name is Jazmin Beck. I am 28 years old, and I have been in the funeral business for almost 7 years. I completed my education requirements through ASUMH and passed my arts and science exams the first time taking them. I completed all of my practicum and apprentice work at McDaniel Funeral Service, where i have been employed full time for the last 3 years. We are a fairly busy funeral home, averaging between 12 and 20 cases a month. I am on call one night a week, and take call every 3rd weekend of the month. Now that I have more availability with our rotation, I would like the opportunity to gain more knowledge in the embalming field and be able to use it to support my family.
