Summary

I am a dedicated, articulate, organized worker that takes pride in the accuracy of my work and volunteering to help others. I have over four years experience working in accounting and payroll, among other office duties and over ten years substituting pre-K through 12th grade. Whether I'm in a classroom or office, I always strive to perform my best, even under stressful situations. My goal in the classroom is to motivate students to learn, maintain order and keep students on task without losing forward progress while the teacher is out. My goal for the office is to complete jobs in a timely manner and keep accurate reports.
