Work History
HISTORY
School Of Life
I have been a file clerk, receptionist, researcher for financial programs, prospectus writer and a V.P. of Human Resources, as well as responsible for auditing slot machine income and related paperwork for U.S. Navy, Bermuda.
Although I never achieved a college degree, I don't believe that it has limited my ability to succeed in any work environment. Often success is being in the right place at the right time.
When given the opportunity, I would ask questions and determine if it was a good option for me, being forthright about my abilities.
My life skills have taught me that being empathetic and honest are crucial for success and well being.
