Contact me at: bengould5@yahoo.comEver since middle school, I have always had a passion for history in general but especially, US History. I am a passionate believer in the importance of preserving records so that future generations can learn from them. Because of this, I am well-suited to any archival role in a history museum or library. I am also a very skilled researcher who can find accurate information quickly. My family likes to describe me as an “encyclopedia” because of the random facts and trivia I somehow have memorized in many categories. I am conscientious and hard working, I never missed a deadline during my years in school.Reading is a passion of mine and it includes anything that isn’t nailed down. Along with this I read quickly and am a fast learner. I enjoy interacting with all types of people and take time to answer their questions fully when they ask me something. I don’t give up easily and use that persistence to get around obstacles.I am a strong writer and very creative. I would be good at coming up with new display ideas and the descriptive writing that goes on plaques and other material related to an exhibit. I am a good editor and it is rare for a spelling, punctuation or grammar error to get past me.
