Explanation of Employment Gap: During this period, I stepped away from the workforce to serve as a medical guardian and primary caregiver for my mother-in-law, who was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer and breast cancer. For over two years, I was responsible for coordinating and attending all medical appointments, managing treatment decisions and providing full-time support to ensure she received the highest level of care possible. This was an incredibly important commitment for my family and I dedicated myself fully until her passing. While it was a challenging period in my life it strengthened my ability to manage complex responsibilities, make critical decisions and handle high-pressure situations with compassion and resilience. I since then have been fully available and ready to help build up the next company I work for.
