Summary
Experienced professional in the dental field who is looking for a new opportunity with San Jose Unified School District. My children attended SJUSD schools, and I worked as a yard duty at Randol Elementary in 1980's. We enjoyed our experiences in SJUSD and I am eager to become involved again as an office assistant. I hope to be able to help with organizing files and records so that the office can run smoothly and focus on the needs of the students.
