To Whom It May Concern:
In my 28 years of administrative work, I have been fortunate to perform a
variety of office jobs. I have worked as an administrative professional
for several companies including: a Professional Office Furniture business,
a Grade School, a Middle School, two Department of Energy contractors, and
Temporary Agencies when we moved. I have performed work as a Job Coach at
a high school, as a Project Coordinator for a National Laboratory
Contractor, and a paraprofessional at a grade school.
Over the years, my husband and I have moved several times and thus I have
had the opportunity to work at a variety of locations doing a variety of
tasks. I am proficient at maintaining training records, safety records,
keeping calendars and submitting various purchase orders as needed.
Excellent oral and written skills, including proofreading, grammar,
spelling, punctuation, accuracy and attention to detail. Excellent
customer service skills, and the ability to effectively work in a team
environment and interact with all levels of personnel.
I enjoy working in a fast paced environment where I am able to learn and
grow as a professional.
I look forward to hearing from you. I can be reached by email at
