Special Note

To proactively address any questions regarding extended lapses in unemployment: Long lapses between employment were either due to distant relocations or choosing to stay at home with my two amazing children. The short lengths of time on the job (1-3 years) was honestly due to youth and lack of patience fueled by consistent offers because of my hard work and drive. Being a mother has greatly humbled me and corrected those errors in judgement.
