Highlights I obtained my Applied Business Technology Certificate, while maintaining a GPA of

91% throughout the program. Accomplished an average typing speed of 66 WPM. Exceeded expectations using computer programs. I have 5 years of experience in the customer service industry. I am happy to work within a team environment as well as independently.

Computer Skills I have been familiarized with multiple computer programs, including: Windows 7,

Word, Excel, Access, Publisher, PowerPoint, Outlook, Sage50, and Google Docs. I received an A in my Web Page Design class during my time in the Applied Business

Technology Program. I thrive when working on newsletters, posters, flyers, and brochures. Preforming

these types of assignments allows me to exercise my creativity and develop my skills further with the programs.

During my time at Shell Gas Station, I was required to create and fill out spreadsheets in the Excel program to record what was sold for that shift. I also used Excel during my time with Purolator & UPS, as a record for what was delivered, ready for pick up, and received. PORTFOLIO AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

Administrative Skills I have experience in file management from previous jobs, including Purolator & UPS,

Shell Gas Station, and the Applied Business Technology Program. I have had 2 years of experience answering office telephones from my position as a

Shipment Clerk at Purolator & UPS, as well as my time spent at the Women’s Contact Society.

Throughout the Applied Business Technology Program I excelled in bookkeeping, office procedures, and business communications.

Through many of my past positions I have handled cash and worked cash registers.
