Summary

As you can see, there are quite a few years where I was not employed. This was due to the decision for me to be a stay at home mom, taking care of our young daughters. After they were older, I was then responsible for taking care of my elderly parents.

I feel I would be a good fit for this position as I am good at assisting customers in a friendly manner, I am also used to working in a fast paced environment.
