About Me

I have traveled extensively throughout my career and am now living in Albuquerque, New Mexico. My background is primarily in office administration working in government contracting at all levels of management. I have had the opportunity to work with the most advanced technology available and with people who excel in their field of expertise. After raising two children on my own, I am ready to explore and perhaps travel again with other employment opportunities.
