and was effective in my abilities to have clients retain our law firm. As a result I was able to increase

unique ability to make people feel at ease during the stressful process of being ordered to pay child
support and was able to make this process easier for them. I was effective in selling individuals in a career

excited to involve myself in any and all aspects of the Crime Analysis position. I took part in several
