I have taken the last 10 years to focus on my children and be a homemaker. Being a friendly extrovert who gets energy by being around others, I am ready to surround myself in an energetic work environment again with intelligent people. The past decade has taught me more than I could have ever learned in an office. I know relationships, I know what to value and I'm looking to be a part of something new, something great and something exciting.
