Introduction
Having worked with computers and Microsoft Office applications for over 10 years, I have experience in many different business environments. I have strong organizational skills with the ability to multi-task, but also recognize the importance of prioritizing individual tasks in the interest of achieving company objectives. Whether working independently, or with managers or team members, I believe strongly in good communication. I am a fast learner, quickly understanding requirements and always looking for ways to improve my work.
