Summary
I am wanting to use my extensive experience in Education and HR to instruct adult students. I have worked in many areas in education; I started out as a classroom teacher and then I became a school administrator. After receiving the SHRM-CP credentials, I moved into a district leadership position in the area of Human Resources/Employee Relations. HR is my passion. I want to instill the same love that I have for the field to adult students.
