Resume:

Thank You for reviewing my resume. As you can see I have worked in a variety of different nursing settings. At this point in my life I am ready for a change from the physical hands on all day nursing jobs. To transition into a more supervisory, office, admissions, per visit type position. I am a loyal employee, and always put the concerns of my clients first. They are the most important and need the support of people who care about their best interests. Weather it is supporting clients, or investigating for quality control or legal investigation to prove that medical care was or was done or not done properly I always put my clients first. My experience in the various fields will provide you with the extensive knowledge that I have learned over my 23 years as a nurse. And I am ready to bring that experience to your company. Thank You again for reviewing my resume and considering me for this position.

Bush Farms 1983-current

I have my own business with my Husband of 33 years. We have been farming produce since the year after we got married, and in 1985 we started participating in farmers markets, and in 1997 we purchased a roadside produce stand. We raise, harvest and sell produce, specializing in tomatoes and melons. One or the other of us have been president, or secretary treasurer for several different markets over the years and I was market manager for about 8 years. As secretary/treasurer I maintained all of the records of the association, Including accounts receivable and payable, all contracts, permits and licensing required by the various different cities where we held markets. Also I have a lot of experience in advertising and marketing for both the markets and Bush Farms. I designed many different fliers and informational pamphlets to hand out at festivals, and health fairs. I participated in many festivals, health fairs, and other marketing opportunities to present information on the markets and Bush Farms. These activities required me to have a display representing all the information about the farmers market. Several required a teaching type booth so I designed "The top ten reasons to shop with your local farmers Market" this included the reason and why that is a good choice. Such as shop with a local grower, you're produce will be fresher because the farmer will have picked it the day he sold it or the day before. I have done a lot of marketing for both the market associations and Bush Farms. I also design displays that catch the eye of consumers both at the fairs and when I'm selling, I believe presentation is the first line to catch a prospective client, then your information has to keep them interested, followed by your product that they find they have to have after they've seen your presentation
