Most relevant experience

Office Manager
Legal Economic Evaluations Inc. 1000 Elwell Court, Palo Alto CA
Founded by Brent Danninger, a pioneer in litigation economics. This company consisted of a group of economist who were licensed annuity brokers specializing in structured settlements.
I was hired as a receptionist and promoted to both Accounting and Office manager.
Several duties were handled with little to no supervision including the following:
• Checking and preparing insurance quotes
• Faxing, binding, and mailing reports
• Inventory and ordering all supplies
• Check and send emails and all reception duties
• Bank deposits and reconciliation
• Financial reports
• Cash Receipts and daily and monthly sales
• Accounts payable and receivables
• Insurance licensing and renewals
• Notary Public duties
• Filing and culling
Additional duties:
• I assisted a handicapped economist for the last few years I was there, doing most everything to help her except the actual calculations for the reports, which were highly specialized.
• Closed the office down by myself when it was sold to a Yuba City CPA as the principles were retiring.
I have letters of recommendation from both the founder and the president that I worked for my last ten years in this company.
