Professional seeking challenging career opportunity
Houston, TX (League City) • 08/11/2004
For the past year I have successfully operated my own business in addition to holding a full time position. I have recently sold the business, and I am searching for challenging career opportunities. I am most interested in event planning and high level administrative positions.
I currently hold a B.B.A. in Marketing. I offer a high energy level, zeal and unique professional experience. I learn quickly and adapt easily to new environments. I am a confident, driven individual with an outgoing personality. I enjoy working in a team environment, and I am capable of working independently. After reviewing my resume (included below), I am certain you will want to meet me in person.
