Summary

I am excited to rejoin the workforce after taking a break to care for my family. My objective is to find a position that will allow me to utilize my skills and dedication. I love to problem-solve, finding ways to streamline processes, and performing at a high level of professionalism no matter what job I am doing. I am highly proficient in Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
