Education, 2010-2011

I established six EL/Civics Classes in four counties served by the

technical college. These classes have afforded adult learners the

opportunity to explore American Culture, improve their English language

communication skills and work towards obtaining citizenship. I

commissioned and collaborated in the creation and dissemination of

marketing materials that attracted dozens of students to the program. I

managed the program's budget, allocating resources for curriculum supplies

and materials, marketing, payroll and travel. I am responsible for

hiring, training, supervising and supporting the instructional staff and

other team members. I was able to employ four teachers and three aides

with years of experience working with adult learners.

While serving in this position, I helped hundreds of students learn English

and/or improve their literacy and communication skills. My pedagogical

approach often included the incorporation of technology and multi-media

presentations in classroom lessons. I have worked with students of various

educational, cultural and economic backgrounds, at all times being

sensitive to both cultural and linguistic differences.

Douglas County Department of Family and Children Services

I was able to arrest, deter and prevent cases of child abuse and neglect

needs and activities of daily family life.

or more academic levels before separating, and a number of whom actually

obtained a GED.

Krystal Company, General Restaurant Manager, Atlanta West Market

2002-2004

As the general restaurant manager I improved food cost by 10-15%. By

driving sales and focusing on efficiently providing service, my team was

able to decrease labor cost and maximize bottom line profits. I was

instrumental in building a high performance team with a can do attitude.

Changing the atmosphere of the restaurant lead to improved inspection

scores and the awarding of the most improved restaurant of the year. I was

also designated an Eagle Manager, which is a prestigious honor bestowed

upon exceptional restaurant managers and multi-unit supervisors.

In the role of Assistant Manager my responsibilities included overseeing

the day to day operations, supervising and evaluating employee performance,

inventory control and payroll. I was deployed to several under-performing

units in an effort to reverse sluggish financial and operational

performance. In doing so, I was able to implement strategic processes for

achieving maximum performance in these areas which resulted in an average

sales increase of 10%. These efforts improved employee work satisfaction

which decreased turnover and tardiness.
