•. Earlier, while owning and operating The Coffee Co. -- a 75-person capacity gourmet café and coffee bean retailer with 12-person staff in Lancaster, Pa. -- I grew annual sales from $250,000 to $485,000 over eight years before selling this business.

•. There, I performed staffing, payroll, training, buying, marketing, and promotion roles – managing sales, growing our client base, orchestrating promos, booking space, etc.

Personnel Management and Classroom Teaching

• In general, I have hired staff, assigned workloads, overseen production schedules, conducted payroll and bookkeeping operations, and also arranged and delivered staff training.

•. Further, for almost ten years I taught Social Studies and English Literature to upper school students in challenging urban districts – preparing lessons, tests, curricula and student portfolios.

• For the last three years as my final teaching role, I served as Technology Literacy Coach and Staff Developer at JPMcCaskey High School meeting PA State and Federal Educational goals – using Univ. Pennsylvania’s “Collins Writing Model” for school improvement.

• In these roles, I communicated specific staff development and technical development protocols to employees and customers, students and government bureaucrats, and even targeted journalists in a clear, persuasive, and unmistakable manner to reach specific results.
