Summary of Experience
I've held several positions in management and administration with a
variety of businesses, both private and non-profit, during my career. I
am seeking a position in human resources or an administrative role with a
company in the Rockford area. My strong management and interpersonal
skills have served me well in working successfully with nursing
professionals, teachers, clerical staff, and laborers in a variety of
work settings. I have used multiple skills as a problem solver, a team
player, and a positive influence with my co-workers. I have a strong work
ethic, am flexible, adaptable, and can collaborate well with other
departments. Since 9/08, I have participated in the Dislocated Worker's
Program through the Workforce Connection, taken classes at Rock Valley
College for Microsoft Word 2007parts I & II, and volunteered at the
Barbara Olson Center for Hope as part of the Inspired to Paint
fundraising event.
