Summary
I haven’t been practicing at my treat and retired at 62. I am very interested in going back to work. I moved to New Jersey to a 55+ development. I enjoy it but I miss working. I really do. I do realize that times have changed in my field, but I am a quick learner smart, tedious and whoever hires me gets 200% thank you. See
