Experience:
2002    – 2005  Hampton Inn  Woodscross, UT
While working for the Hampton inn, my job experience up to that point was limited. However, through my time there I was able to develop the ability to communicate with customers and not stress in problem solving settings.  Another important job I had was to tend the front desk and help guests with any needs they had.  Many times these needs led me to go above and beyond and ensure quality customer service in a hotel setting.

2005 – 2008   Farmers Insurance  Salt Lake City, UT
Customer Service Rep
The most important task I had during my tenure with Farmers Insurance was ensuring that customers understood the comparing prices of other insurance companies and what they could do to save on money with our insurance company.  I learned to be patient with the customer, especially while helping them try to understand unfamiliar terms and complex policies.  Farmers insurance really taught me how to speak in a way that made even the most difficult information could be understood.

2006 – 2008 LDS Church New Jersey

2008 – Present

Usana Health Sciences
I have been working at Usana Health Sciences for about three years now.  They have trained me in many facilities, and I currently work as a Distributor Service Spanish trainer within the company.  My education has grown immensely at Usana since they offer a tuition reimbursement program; this service has allowed me the liberty of pursuing my education.

I help out and train the Spanish Usana distributors so I continue to sharpen my skills of the language.  Even in my current position I have been involved in a lot of critical writing situations that I have handled very well.  It has expanded my ability to write and communicate, especially pertaining to all things Usana.  I have been given many opportunities to polish my skill and passion of writing.

Missionary
For two years I provided service to my church and moved to New Jersey to assist the Spanish community there.  While engaging in this volunteer work, I learned to be selfless and help people who were in dismal situations.  Also I was able to learn the Spanish language which has proven useful while working for Usana.  I have in turn been able to utilize these skills in my professional life since returning in 2008.

ABOUT ME:

I am currently a sophomore at the University of Utah.  I am 24 and a communication student.  I transferred to the U. of U. in August 2011 from Salt Lake Community College in order to further study communication.

My experience in communication has been a positive one thus far.  I am gaining more and more knowledge in the subject.

I am open to new ideas and people and when put to a task, can accomplish it with the up most efficiency.  I want to expand my education and become the best at what I do.  I am always seeking ways to set new goals and surpass new horizons.
