Summary

I succeeded in graduating college with a 4.0 GPA in Business Management. I also received the Outstanding Business Management Student award from Southwestern Illinois College which was quite an achievement. The gaps in my resume reflect the time I took to focus on raising my family. I have worked several jobs in the past which includes retail, customer service, and the fast food business. Within retail and customer service, I have worked as a manager before. I am very organized and pay attention to detail. I pride myself in always doing the best work I can possibly do.
