I have extensive experience in higher education ranging from the department level to financial aid to Academic Affairs (Provost's) office. I have experience in day to day administrative assistant and secretarial tasks - both in and out of higher education, event planning, organizing and running, human resources and personnel, as well as payroll. I have supervised both undergraduate and graduate students, both on a daily basis and per individual projects. Looking forward, I am looking for a place where I can settle down and build a home and future life which will build on my previous experiences and utilize my skills, talents, abilities, and ambitions.
