Summary
Certified Pharmacy Technician since 1993. Worked at a leading national Long Term Care pharmacy, as well as a large Inpatient Hospital Pharmacy, established brain injury rehabilitation hospital and an Inpatient Pharmacy on a military base in Augusta, Georgia. I am a dedicated, hard-working, reliable and accurate professional who delivers courteous service at all times. I took time off from work to raise my children around 2000-2007, and recently to travel with my husband. I am now eager to rejoin the work force and feel I have a lot to offer.
