As a recent graduate of UC Davis, I am looking for an opportunity to apply the work ethic I gained from being a student there. I have had the opportunity to work for the public for eight years in a variety of customer service positions. More than just enjoying these interactions I have had with the public, I have felt fulfilled by attending to their needs. I do not know what career path might inspire me, but I know that as a foundation I need to be serving the community. I believe that I would enjoy working in a position that would broaden my potential career choices and compliment my existing experience in working with diverse peoples.
I am seriously looking for a challenging posision whether it has anything to do with my past work experiences or not (I'm talking from costume designer to phlebotomist). I am extremely honest, motivated, and flexible. I enjoy working as a team member or on my own. I am confident in my communication, interpersonal, and computer skills. If you are interested please see my following resume and contact me via e-mail.
Thank you,
Rachel Otahal
