During this time I spent many years building up business acumen in the trenches of Microsoft as an Administrative Assistant. I took on many rewarding projects which taught me a verifiable ton. I worked to identify and master my "style", dabbled in event coordination, excelled at customer service, grew serious skills at supporting an individuals time and efforts, became knowledgeable regarding fiscal year budgeting, reporting up to management as well as stakeholders and learned the ropes at facilities management. I love looking back on these years, they were formative and some of my strongest work relationships came from this period of steep growth.
