Currently, I enjoy online tutoring and freelance writing.

I have served as an educator for 20 years. Prior to that, I founded my own business which I operated for 9 years and sold.

I am a unique professional because I have vast experience in education, business, legal writing, human resources, and management. As an educator, I have observations/recommendations for the results of my work for the past 20 years. Not many candidates can account for consistent professional customer service, complete reliability, results-driven productivity, and an extraordinary ethical approach for 20 years. I can.

• Classroom teacher, grade 6 through adult; special needs; inner city, suburbs, English, 16 years
• Online instructor, 11 years
• Curriculum writing/design, classroom and online, many disciplines (business, finance, English, composition, communications, psychology, health care, law, emergency management), 5 years
• Tutoring management, 2 years
• Academic advisor, 2 years
• Human resource management, 10 years
• Business contractor, bookkeeping, accounting, marketing, hiring, managing, inventory, day-to-day operations, 9 years
• Legal writing, 23 years
• Editing, 20 years
• LMS: Canvas, Moodle, WebStudy, Blackboard, et al., 14 years
• PC user, over 15 years
• MAC user, over 20 years
• Microsoft Office, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, 15 years; Access, 1 year
• Teacher professional development, 5 years

I believe in doing a job well, providing excellent customer service, working with my colleagues, and serving and supporting my team. I enjoy problem solving and accomplishing tasks that can challenge me.

I am available for a position in education or business.

Thank you for reviewing my profile.
