Additional Information
Although I have been out of the workforce for some anitially due to my first grandson being born December of 2018, I took the year off to be with my daughter and him. Ultimately in November 2019, my husband passed away and then in March 2020 covid hit leaving the job hunt extremely difficult. Indefinitely I have remained punctual, detail oriented, a hard worker and quick learner. I dedicate myself to my work no matter the task. I always give 110% and take pride in my work. I work well with a team and am confident working independently.
