Additional Information
I started my career in Procurement and Logistics with GTE in April 1997. GTE merged with Bell Atlantic and became Verizon in 2001. To advance my career I volunteered to join the Frontier team in 2010. My time was grandfathered. Therefore, I had a total of 26 years with these companies. I was laid off in March of 2023 as my position was eliminated. The last 2 years+ have been spent getting my house ready to sell, and assisting my elderly mom with her home as well. I’m more than ready and excited to further my career with a new company.
