Things didn’t quite go according to the plan...

I made some poor choices and did some things I’m not proud of.

Exhibit A:

During my adventures, I got a puppy.

He happens to be a giant baby.

My living situation wasn’t fair to him.

And I was unwilling to give him away.

So I decided the only option was to make improvements in my life.

However

Since Starfleet doesn’t exist,

I enrolled in the Criminal Justice program at

And I moved back home.

My dog made himself at home...

I started working at Verizon

Through this position I’ve learned about the tools and applications available to smartphones, how they can benefit people, and how they can be utilized.

● Customer service ● Technical support● Administrative tasks● Professionalism

Wireless Consultant

My responsibilities:● Planning and prioritizing● Leadership and delegation under pressure● Maintaining a safe and clean environment● Customer service● Professional verbal/written image and skills● Inventory ordering, receiving, and monitoring

Prior to Verizon, I worked for Coughlin Inc.

● Expertise in wireless handsets● Knowledge of iOS, Android, and Microsoft● Technical support and troubleshooting● Computer literacy● Professional communication ● Strong organizational skills● Cleanliness & Safety● Leadership

Developed Skills:

I haven’t given up on a career in criminal justice, but I have begun to accept my physical limitations.

I don’t regret my past decisions, those experiences have made me who I am. I hope to use my experiences and my professional skills as I continue my education to find my place in the helping field.
