Reliable, hardworking and focused professional offering excellent communication, planning and prioritization skills. Keen on attention to detail and strong decision making skills to manage multiple, concurrent tasks. Perform with a self-motivated work ethic to perform effectively in independent or team environments.

Skilled at drafting reports and business correspondence, managing mail, and filing systems along with many other tasks. Over 10 years of experience using Microsoft Office and Quickbooks. Background in supervision of youth in different environments, focused on guiding children to follow certain rules and instructions in order to maintain routine and safety.

My lifetime experiences have given me the opportunity to explore a variety of professional avenues. I have gained a wealth of knowledge and developed multiple key life skills throughout my journey, including the most important ones pertaining to the safety, care, and development of children. As a professional I had the responsibility of making sure children, of all ages, had a clear understanding of the instructions and rules they were expected follow and the proper way to follow those rules. As a Crossing Guard, I engaged with children multiple times daily and instructed them in the ways to cross the street safely. I ensured their understanding of the rules and I was able to guide them if there was a misunderstanding. As a lifeguard it was my responsibility to ensure the safety and well being of all patrons, including children. In a similar manner as a Crossing Guard, I was able to instruct children on the proper way to follow the rules of the water park and I was able to provide guidance to them as needed.

In the last few years, I have been involved with several different activities and events for the Boy Scouts. Some of these included over night camping and all day activities. During these times I was able to provide support and guidance to the scouts and assist in the instruction and execution of certain activities and tasks.

As a mother of five amazing children I have been blessed to learn the importance of safe and healthy childhood development. Throughout my nearly 14 years of motherhood, I have been able to teach my children the essential skills for optimum development and lifelong success. Although at a professional level my experience does not lie within the classroom, I am confident that my accumulated experience and knowledge, both professionally and personally, will give me the specific tools and techniques needed to be a successful Teacher's Assistant.
