Summary
I spent ten years professionally operating a home childcare while raising my five children. I am currently working as a Professional Art Instructor as well as teaching Elementary Theatre and Cooking Classes for a local non-profit. Prior to my childcare operation I spent over ten years working professionally as an Executive Assistant, Administrative Assistant and other various corporate/ office roles.
I absolutely love working with children and I am looking to pursue career opportunities that will place me in a full or part-time position using my experience, organizational skills, positive outlook and servant spirit to positively impact each of the students, teachers and support staff I encounter.
