CollapseDescription

Self-motivated professional with liberal arts and technical writing background. Strong communication, editorial, and computer skills. I have never encountered a software program I couldn't teach myself (from oilfield services to investment-related software). I have a strong sense of curiosity and an ability to look at things from various perspectives at once. Able to work from home with discipline and drive.

CollapseAccomplishments

Highlights:

I have been continuously promoted within my current organization. When I was hired, the President of the company told me that he did not know exactly what I would be doing and that I would have to make it up as I went along. I have successfully created multiple positions within the organization. Recently, the President of the company announced at a staff meeting that he "did not know what the company would do without [me]."

Companies I like:

University of Oklahoma, Halliburton Energy Services, Doubleday Books, independent writers (fiction and nonfiction)
