To whom it may concern;
Hola! My name is Ida Galan. I am a mother of one and grandmother of four stunningly handsome, rambunctious boys. I chose to leave my lovely custodial job of 9 years to move closer to my family. I’ve also decided to venture out in hopes of finding greater opportunities in sunny California. I am a hard worker and happily welcome any challenge. I am currently searching for housekeeping and custodial job openings that will evoke the leader I have become. I’m not perfect and have made mistakes but none that would hinder my ability to adapt and diversify. Thank you for your time and patience. I look forward to meeting you soon and taking this journey head on. Rain or shine, no building left uncleaned or checked. Here comes Ida to save the day!
