For almost 20 years, I have been at the forefront of initiatives that have positioned organizations to support significant growth, and have turned around floundering and problematic divisions to regain the respect of the people they serve. I have conceived new ideas to strengthen core services to customers, project-managed new infrastructure initiatives, and maintained the morale of “the troops” despite periods of instability and change.

With my upcoming graduation from Sharon Regional Health System School of Nursing, I am excited about using my nursing skills to provide patient care at your facility.

As you review my resume, you will note that this is a second career for me. I spent several years as a stylist, where I gained much experience in interacting with the public and providing excellent customer service.

I am confident you will determine that my clinical skills meet those established by you.

Although I currently live in California, I plan to relocate to Colorado once I obtain suitable employment. I am enclosing my current resume for your consideration.

On the high seas, navigation is very important. In fact, few persons could play a more significant role than the captain of a large cargo vessel.

When the cargo vessel approaches the mainland or nears port, a towering beacon of golden light flashes and revolves to guide ships and warn of obstacles. Here, the lighthouse and its keeper bring the ship through the maze of rocks, atolls and barnacled debris, to safe harbor.

In May, I will graduate from the State University of Stony Brook with a Bachelor of Science in Cytotechnology, with a minor in Biology.
