Summary

Professional office support specialist with extensive experience in administrative functions and office management. Known for reliability and fostering great communication with overseers, staff, parents and students. Excellent organizational abilities and collaborative mindset ensure seamless team operations.


I'm wanting to try a different career path that is less demanding and that I can be creative in. I've always dreamt of being a florist and I'm able to take courses if it is needed. I'm willing to do any cleaning or tasks that come with running a shop. I'm also willing to work at either location. Thank you for considering me for a position at Radiance Florist. I look forward to hearing from you.
