I have over a decade of secretarial experience with increasing responsibility. I returned to complete my Bachelors in Public Communications in 2003. In May 2006, I accepted a position with St. Lucie Tourism as the Marketing and Public Relations Specialist. In December 2006, the Tourism Coordinator left her position and I have been doing both jobs ever since. I handled a half million dollar budget which included a $100,000 marketing budget. In this capacity I maintained relationships with local hoteliers, attractions and business leaders.
