Mission: Secure a position where I can successfully utilize the skills I have honed over my diverse career. They are: exceptional organizational skills, proven multi-tasking ability, excellent communication, detail oriented, analytically focused, caring customer service demeanor, creative problem-solving skills, project management and professional demeanor in a dynamic arena. Functioning well independently with effective time management prioritization skills, I’m also a valuable team-mate. I have advanced MS Office experience with Outlook, Word, PPT, and Excel. I acclimate quickly and learn new software effectively.
Intro: I have recently relocated back to the DFW area and am seeking permanent placement in an administrative role. After relocating to CO in 2013, I took a year and a half sabbatical from my career and focused on my photography. In May of 2015, I was an Executive Assistant to the VP of Business Improvement (IT) at a non-profit. However, after living at 9300 feet in the Rocky Mountains for four years I acquired altitude sickness. My husband and I then relocated to Michigan where my heath returned to normal and we focused on establishing our construction business. At the end of winter, we decided to return to the temperate and culturally rich DFW area. I am open to all levels of administrative opportunities. Thank you for your consideration.
