Linda Wright

I have always been a self starter and I have created many small business and handled the sales of all business myself.

I am a self motivated and committed to what ever I choose to do. At 21 I opened my first business a Gas station and grocery store, so I started fairly early in life in the business field.

I have real life experience in management, restaurant, catering and concessions. I work well with people and inspire and motivate others. As a Union Organizer I have negotiated contracts with school districts and local government.

Skills in negotiating a contract, require skills to organize a bargaining team, research wages, benefits , healthcare and retirement. Working with hundreds of different personalities where most struggle to agree. I also was a Union Steward so I worked with Human Resources navigating disciplinary actions and resolutions for the best outcome, following the guideline's of a contract or Board policies.

I have no problem with public speaking, organizing events and working with any size group.

I also have a background in construction running permits and working with inspectors, and running small equipment, as years ago I was part owner in a construction company.

I value family and personal time for all. I believe its important to be a good listener, respect other peoples opinions and always assume good intent. I am trained in having a critical conversation which at times can be uncomfortable for some, but I value good communication with respect.

I am a quick study and can do anything asked of me. I am interested in working part time in any department where my skill set will be of value. Including a floating position in other departments as needed. I have also owned a gift store and I am proficient in sales, purchasing and display understanding seasonal trends.
