Objective and Overview: I am seeking an opportunity with a company that will combine my experience in business, my bachelor's degree, and my interest in the sciences. At Hunter Engineering Company, I was working in the Marketing Information Department for seven years. I managed a database, prepared contracts, managed a yearly short term direct mail project, typed and distributed inter office memos, and supported the Regional and Divisional Sales Managers with special projects. I utilized Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and a mapping software. After Hunter Engineering, I worked at Mission Equipment and Lifts, Inc and then Macy's. I graduated from the University of Missouri-St. Louis with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a Minor in Art History in 1988. Later, while working at Hunter Engineering Company, I began evening classes for pre-medicine, from 1996-2003 at UM-St. Louis. My focus and long term goal remains to obtain a PhD in the sciences, such as anthropology and archaeology. I am of the Irish and Hungarian family background, and have an interest in Scottland and Wales; archaeology, anthropology, physics, Earth sciences, ecology, biology, Latin, art and art history. It is more than acceptable to have a background that includes several countries where your aunts, uncles, cousins, parents, step-parents, and grandparents were born or lived; with friends and family, (to include those from your past schools and workplaces), to celebrate with them year after year, the holidays with the different foods, languages, and literature; breads, fruits, cheeses, nuts, seeds, herbs, spices, teas, coffee, wine, liquors, and dark beers; the literature from Shakespeare; holidays, botany, history, art and architecture - such as the architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright and the art works by Picasso, gardening for food and flowers, woodworking, camping, music, math, astronomy, fabrics and textiles; games, exercise, and sports; goods and technology (that are at cost); real expenses and incomes; real businesses; museums, arboretums, science centers; cafes, coffee and tea houses, pubs, books, libraries, and colleges; coastal diets and recipies; and lifelong study and formal education; travel for educational purposes, to any library, for any work purposes and workplaces, to any lectures, to any colleges, to any community center. It is more than acceptable to have and own any transportation, any land, any dwelling, and any small business. It is more than acceptable to have good and excellent health. If you are trying to get anything done, usually with your cousins and family, neighbors, friends from your work, or with those from your school or college; and at any time of the year, for the holidays or a tailgating party, using a project management approach will keep you within or under budget, and on time.
Skills and Accomplishments: I am a past member of Toastmaster’s International, a public speaking organization. My office skills include data entry, marketing, managing a yearly short-term direct mail project, revising contracts, managing a database, typing and distributing inter-office memos, and supporting the Regional and Divisional Sales Managers with special projects. I used Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook and a mapping software on a daily basis. My typing is currently 35 WPM and know 10 key by touch. My education includes a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a GPA of 2.453 and Post Baccalaureate Pre Medical classes with a GPA of 3.123.
Hobbies and Interests: I enjoy JRR Tolkien’s works, “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings,” along with the six movies produced by Peter Jackson based upon JRR Tolkien’s works. I love to watch, on YouTube, the entire series for the BBC’s “The Time Team;” with Tony Robinson, Mick Aston, and Phil Harding, to name a few of the archaeologists who uncover the ancient Roman and Anglo Saxon settlements in Britain, all within three days of filmed archaeological digs, on the BBC documentary series. My other favorite BBC archaeology documentary, is the Edwardian Farm, Victorian Farm, Tudor Monastery Farm, Full Steam Ahead, Secrets of the Castle with Ruth Goodman, Alex Langlands, and Peter Ginn. For the news and fun: I prefer to watch PBS, for the “PBS NewsHour,” “Nova,””This Old House,” and Brian Greene’s “Light Falls;” National Public Radio’s “Science Friday;” and “Better Homes and Gardens” with the Meredith Corporation; and the local libraries, college libraries, and the National Library of Scottland. For my own self, I enjoyed my time at the Cerritos Senior Center at Pat Nixon Park, in Cerritos, California; and the painting class at the Artesia Library in the Los Angeles County Libraries. I try to walk at least two to four miles each day, for light exercise. I am originally from Creve Coeur, St. Louis, Missouri. I am an atheist. I have mild seizures and take Dilantin; I do NOT have fibromyalgia; I was NOT born with Downs Syndrom; I do NOT have MS (multiple sclerosis); I do NOT have diabetes. I lost my jobs in the past due to prescribed Keppra, ritalin. There is a chance that Keppra, ritalin contribute to the development of fibromyalgia, Downs Syndrom, MS (multiple sclerosis), and Alzheimer's disorder; the inflammation of the knee joints and nasal passages, overproduction of saliva from the salivary glands, changes to your eyesight, loose teeth, slowing of the metabolism, and possibly heart attacks. (The entire practice of psychology and psychiatry uses rumor to justify the use of prescription of opioids. This can happen to your own parents and cousins. The use of reverse psychology, role play, the use of abbreviated learning methods, and tough love, are abhorrent methods when talking to anyone, and is used to justify the use of prescription of opioids. This is scientific racism, quackery.)
Everything that you are trying to do is coordinated through or with the multiple school systems. This includes libraries, colleges, civic centers, and high schools; coffee and tea houses or bistros factor into this, somehow. Just go there, to the brick and mortar location, and ask someone. Take yourself out of the educational systems, you do not get enough continous people contact to be socialized. Reference the code of conduct with the American Library Association.
To my family, friends of my parents, extended family, cousins, those that are from my high school, and those who I worked with, at the many companies I was employed with; you are welcome wherever I happen to be living and wherever I happen to be working.
If you are not using a dictionary on a daily basis, you are not trying to improve upon your own education. If you are not referencing books from a library, you are not getting closer to the idea of a life long education. If you are not going to some public place, five days each week, you are undersocialized. Some of the public places can include libraries, shopping malls or shopping centers, grocery stores, cafes, lectures, exercise, to include your workplaces, schools, or colleges.
