I am working as a volunteer librarian.

I provide quality, custom sewing and alterations to individuals and businesses. I specialize in helping people look their best and love the challenge of custom fitting hard to fit clients or creating one-of-a-kind items for a signature look.

Will still be working part time as needed here.

I am developing a library for a private school in their current facility. I am setting up procedures, training volunteer library staff and working closely with the school staff and teachers to enable them to provide quality education to the community in which we are serving.

I wrote and presented training classes to for church librarians. These classes covered various aspects of library administration and customer service. I am also working on providing a social media networking group to enhance communication between Texas christian librarians in order to give them a vehicle in which to support and assist each other.

I am a contract teacher and teach sewing to all ages and all skill levels. Some of the classes I develop myself. I incorporate the skills I have from working with the public in my home business to give my students advanced skills and techniques to be able to create professional looking projects.

Received library training on the job and quickly moved to Associate Librarian. I handled technical processing, book repair, cataloging, circulation desk and promotion and displays. I also served on the board of a local library association as well as taught a number of training classes on both state and local levels.

As a cashier I handled negotiable stocks and bond, customer payments and payouts as well as maintained customer files. I also wired buy/sell orders to the various exchanges for the brokers.

Balanced NYSE/AMEX trade sheets with customer billings. Reconciled differences with NYSE trade specialists and other brokerage houses. This position required me to spend vast amounts of time on the phone troubleshooting errors in order to reconcile the books.
