Encore!Hartford is an intensive hands-on education program designed to successfully bridge my passions, skills, and work experiences to a career in the nonprofit sector. I was chosen, after an intensive vetting process, to be admitted into this high-caliber program based on my enthusiasm for entering the educational and project management components of the nonprofit sector.As part of this program, I accepted a project to help The Hartford Consortium for Higher Education look at its resources and to apply them most effectively to a new endeavor they recently undertook. This new venture involves supporting college students through their first year at institutions of higher learning and helping them to at least advance into their third semesters. The recommendations not only addressed their needs in the Bridge and Persistence program for first year college students; but also offered suggestions to both enhancing and capturing the values of their other programs.I was also asked to look into the job descripton of the organization's counseling position and the recruiting methods for attracting students into their college preparatory program.

The Sawyer School was a vocational institution primarily focused in preparing people for entry level positions in the medical and general business fields. Before the laws were changed in 2012, students could matriculate at vocational schools without a high school diploma so long as they passed a national standardized tests. Prior to becoming the GED Coordinator, I prepared students to pass the standardized tests. I also taught other Sawyer students in business related courses such as Computer Keyboarding, Business Math, and Business Communications. As GED Coordinator, I not only instructed new students in classes to prepare them to secure their high school diplomas but also worked with existing students in need of their GED diplomas. These classes were given immediately after school for the day students and immediately before school for the night students.

AIG specialized in automobile claims, and the branch I worked in was responsibile for those customers who lived in the New England states. My duties involved superving a unit of claim handlers to ensure that each claim was investigated, evaluated, negotiated, and resolved fairly and timely.
