OBJECTIVE: My objective is to gain a position with new and refreshing opportunities.
INTERESTS:
The best place for me to start off would be sharing with you a little about myself. I like to write and I would consider reading one of my most favored pastimes. I would say that my participation in these activities has contributed to making me a well-rounded individual. I have been born and raised in British Columbia speaking fluent Enish as my first and most used language. I consider myself a fast learner and very focused when it comes to dealing with inter-personal situations. Another large interest of mine is fitness, and I love incorporating activity into my everyday routines. I am currently attending part-time post-secondary education to achieve my (medical) office assistant certificate. Long-term I am working towards being a health unit coordinator in a hospital environment. I very much enjoy meeting new people.
