I am currently working as a Technical Sales Specialist in the nuclear process controls field. I graduated from NGCSU in December 2011 and started working with McKinsey & Company shortly thereafter as a Cost Reduction Consultant, which has greatly expanded my skill set to include packaging analyzing strategies as well as ingredient make-up analyzing strategies with the ultimate goal of reducing cost to the company. As an undergrad History major, I hardly could have expected to end up in this field, but the strong communication skills (both written and verbal), research skills (using a diverse variety of multimedia and technological sources), and critical-thinking skills greatly prepared me for the daily challenges I face on the job. By working full-time through college, I have developed strong multi-tasking and time-management skills due to the large workload and diverse nature of my academic and work related projects. As a result of my work experience, I have been responsible for managing up to 10 people with limited supervision, which has enhanced my self-starting and self-motivating skills. In all my previous jobs, I have been promoted or asked personally by my superiors to take on more responsibilities as a result of my interpersonal skills, diligence, and work performance.Specialties: • Communication: strong editing skills, effective writer, strong teaching and coaching skills, and presenting information using written, spoken, and technological media.• Research: gathering, clarifying, and developing information, evaluate theories and evidence while relating said theories to gathered information, and summarize/interpret information. • Critical thinking: adapting ideas, problem solving, accurate and detail-oriented work, and exceptional concentration.
