At my most recent job, I was working for a family in North Carolina where I took care of the whole household and transportation needs for an older couple, 90 and 95, and their beloved pet dog. I was responsible for physically transferring the lady from bed to wheelchair after she had a stroke and lost use of her left side. I handled shopping, cooking, and driving for everything they needed. I managed the households making sure repairs are done in a timely manner, managed vendors and contractors, and oversaw their progress and project completion timelines, I took responsibility for inventories and ordered supplies all household supplies, and was effective in streamlining the ordering process for maximum efficiency at the lowest cost. As the Personal Assistant /Chief of Staff and household support manager, I took part in interviews and hiring decisions, and supervised staff. I managed multiple calendars, schedules, and set up travel and transportation in coordination with the main office. I assisted with all office/household technology including computers, printers, and smart devices. I designed, fabricated, and or repaired assistive devices and household appliances. I was in this position for 6 years and traveled with them to and from their homes in Florida, North Carolina, and Texas.

Seasonal restaurant work, The club only opens from November to the end of April, So I was serving food, breakfast in the formal dining room, setting up and serving various menus for lunches at the pool house, and dinner banquets, special events, and room service. Working at Mountain Lake I honed my service skills, especially serving high-end clients and club members. During the Off-season, I was chosen to be one of the few to work as a full-time employee and I did building and outdoor maintenance work including painting, plant care, and cleanup. An overall wonderful experience and a great company to be a part of.
