Résumé

I am a Teton County, Wyoming resident with community ties. I have strong customer service, task switching, problem solving, organizational, and computer skills.

I have been working in construction since 1988, with a General Contractor as well as Subcontractors and suppliers. I had a fifteen years span at our local Medical Center, while there I was involved with three major software conversions and was a key resource within my departments for software questions, and facilitating the move from paper to computer. I was also responsible for setting up and organizing several new positions and office spaces.

I'm very active with our local Non-Profit Community Band and am on the board of directors.
