Professional Outlook
WHERE I AM. WHERE I’M GOING.
I am a 2018 graduate from The University of Findlay with a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science and a minor in Business Administration. I have had a passion for animals since I can remember and upon graduating I worked as both an Animal Behavior Specialist and a Technician at a Standardbred Breeding Farm. Through my experiences, I have realized I would like to keep my passion for animals as my hobby rather than my career. Within the past year, I have found I am vehement about Home Improvement and Architectural Design. I enjoy working with customers and being creative every day. Through all these life changes I have learned to approach each challenge with the same enthusiasm, desire to learn, and a positive attitude you would expect to find in any star of this industry. It is this, combined with my strong skill set and experience that I feel would make me a valuable addition to any company. Be sure to browse through my CV site, so that you can get to know me a little better and see what all I have to offer.
My Professional Profile
There are so many people in the world who never have the opportunity to pursue the career they love. I’m not one of them. I am proud to be apart of the 10% of women to be working in the field of Home Improvement and Remodeling. I know that I still have so much to learn from others in the industry and I cannot wait to be given more opportunities to do so. I’m a hard worker, a team player and excited to see what projects could benefit from my unique skill set. Please see the link below to view my professional resume.
