My background includes sales, recruiting, management and administration. I have worked in a variety of industries such as financial services, healthcare, retail, and construction. As an entrepreneur by nature, I have enjoyed working for myself, and I have also learned a great deal working in the corporate world. I am currently working on a national web-based business project, which is designed to help small, pet-related businesses, as well as, pet shelters. My goal at this encore stage in my life is to serve or volunteer with organizations which better serve humanity. My mission is to stay focused on the positive while generating a win/win outcome in all endeavors, whether paid or unpaid. My vision, as I enter this encore phase of my work life, is solely focused on creating a positive social impact by working with organizations and companies who also embrace my civic and community values. Specialties: I have a great sense of humor and get along well with people from a variety of backgrounds. I follow up as promised, and I do my best to minimize mistakes by paying attention to details, as I help manage projects to completion. I believe providing value creates happy customers who will often refer new customers, and that is the best resource for growing a business or organization.
