Summary

Knowledgeable professional with several years of experience bringing planning and problem-solving abilities. Wide variety of experiences has prepared me for many different roles. Organized and systematic with natural relationship-building and leadership talents. I have had many leadership roles, both professionally and in my personal life.

Although I never listed it in previous work experience, I did work on the first Voting by Mail team during the last provincial election. It was a short term job specifically in the area of compiling final results from counted ballots.I would look forward to an opportunity working with Elections Saskatchewan in a larger capacity.
