Summary

I am a person who has been working since I was 16 years. I like to be dedicated and responsible with my work. I am a mother of 4 children who are of school age, they are one of the reasons why I am looking for an opportunity to work during the weekdays, so I have time to spend with them during the weekends. I worked night shift for almost 12 years on the same company where I have managed to maintain a good reputation and work knowledge. I also worked for another company as plant manager during the day, but I have to leave after 7 months of work due that I was in the process of rebuilding a house as I was working as investor in real state and this was taking a lot of my time, right now I'm looking for a better future for my kids and myself building a business as entrepeuner.
