Unfortunately, Kelcam is on a prolonged health hiatus that doesn't seem to be resolving anytime soon. Sincerely Grateful, kv

When one has been at a company for 20 plus years, things may get stagnant, but this has not been my experience. Although I have stayed at one company, it hasn't really been one job. My roles have ranged from Office Manager to Sales to Project Manager. There were many years when I hired (and fired) office personnel as well as organized the company systems, managed all scheduling, order placement, inventory, and reports. Currently, I handle much of the accounts receivable as well as customer relations and price verification. My largest project at the company was automating the production line. This allowed the company to grow to multiple locations and increase dramatically in size. I am deliberately proactive by nature and more than proficient in Quick Books, Quicken, Microsoft, Adobe, website management, budgeting, social media marketing, scheduling, PCs, and Macs. When our construction related company down-sized during the most recent recession, I was one of very few who not only remained at the company but did so without a salary adjustment. I am the type of person who is placed wherever the need is greatest. Not only do I organize, streamline, and simplify but I enjoy the challenge and work well both individually or with any team. I've worked on huge and complicated projects but am never above doing what needs to be done, whether that is soothing a tense and complicated situation with a customer or employee, filing and answering phones, or seamlessly instituting an entirely new process that saves the company time and money.

Worked in the office for summers and holidays during my under-grad. Post graduation, I was hired full time as the office manager. I handled a very complicated job related (as well as hourly) payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and customer orders. I was in charge of hiring and firing as well.
