Objective
I would like to find a career where both my employer and myself would benefit from my skills and experience. I have several years of experience in retail management, and reception, that I believe any employer would benefit from. I have also graduated from Griffin Tech with an associates degree as an x-ray tech. I have some experience in this field both with hands on training from school and from working in a Physicians office.
