To whom it may concern,                                 I am dedicated and technically skilled as a business professional with a versatile administration support

skill set developed through experience as an office manager. Currently employed by Princeton Village Assisted

Living as a Business Office Manager; where I handle finances, payroll, invoices, and all other aspects of

managing a business. Assisting in recruiting, interviewing, evaluating and supervising; it is my job to manage

all employee files. Directing the safety committee and facilitating in-service and staff training sessions, I strive

to make a positive difference. Being head of the safety committee I am always striving to make the work

environment a better and safer place collaborating with staff makers of all departments to eradicate potential

problems or hazards.

As office manager I work alongside the executive director ensuring all aspects of the facility are staffed

at all time; and act in his place when he is absence.  It is my responsibility to manage and oversee the

accounting and general bookkeeping for the facility including all employee and resident files. I am certified

through the background check unit performing criminal record checks using CRIMS for newly hired

employees.

I am extremely organized and orderly, both at work and at home. Able to prioritize multiple incoming

calls and in-person contacts simultaneously with ease. Working under pressure and multitasking is second

nature. It’s easy to know what needs to be done and I always find the most efficient and effective way of

executing each task. Determination has always been one of my strong suit; I am extremely dependable, hard-

working and adaptable.  Routinely I work without supervision and take full responsibility for the successful

completion of my assignments. Functioning well with co-workers and supervisors alike, being easily able to

maintain effective interpersonal relationships with a variety of individuals.

Communication is imperative both in person and over the phone, especially when working with upset

individuals. Empathy, understanding and clarity are crucial when communicating to those under stress, as I did

working at PPB Records and Schnitzer Steel. Throughout my professional career I have learned to provide

effective customer service to difficult and sometimes distended customers. I like to stay positive and cheerful

with a smile on my face because it has been an infectious effect on others around me. I like to live by the quote,

"the happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have."

 I would appreciate the opportunity to work for you and hope to hear from you soon. Please do not

hesitate to call me at 971-275-5641. Thank you for your time and consideration.
