Summary
After a nearly thirteen-year career in the veterinary industry, I'm ready to make a transition into the next chapter of my career. While my nursing skills, understandably, don't translate directly into the banking field, I've worked to develop a foundation of traits that support me in a new profession. I have an efficient detail-oriented work ethic, dedicated to providing a high standard of service, and excellent with client communication. I'm passionate about learning new skills and furthering my own education as well as teaching others. I'm seeking a client-focused, team-oriented environment with opportunities for growth.
