I offer a strong professional background in clinical support services with a wide breadth of expertise in caring for people. I have the ability to prioritize a number of activities while persevering to see tasks through to completion. My interpersonal, communication and organizational skills are extraordinary. I thrive on challenge and feel that my skills and experiences are easily transferable with a willingness to continually upgrade. I am a hard-working creative individual who is motivated by knowledge and strong leadership capabilities. My success is directly related to the time, energy and effort that I commit to my position.
On a personal note, I left the workforce 10 years ago to spend time with my ailing mother. She passed away this past Christmas. I am now looking forward to working in a smaller capacity but in an area that I am most passionate about, that is, taking care of people. I enjoy children and given the opportunity I would be an asset to your child(s) life. I would welcome an opportunity of discussing this with you. I thank you for your time and consideration, and look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
