SUMMARY:
As an experienced business administrator/owner-operator for 20 years I was responsible

including account management, office management, performing all core administrative functions
(correspondence, bookkeeping, database management, Internet research, e-mailing, telephone contacting, filing,
etc.) using the Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Outlook, Excel, Access, Powerpoint), Lexis-Nexis, iMIS,

staffing, hiring and firing, training new hires, client and employee relations, client retention and loyalty,
