      Seasonal Employee

      In the department I was assigned to I working in the back unpacking boxes and hanging product on hangers. I did this everyday, but I found a positive outlook on what others call a tedious task. I found accomplishment in how well or faster I completed my boxes. I enjoyed busily working at the boxes and properly hanging product the correct way. I became an asset to the company by getting my work done with less chit chat while working. I excelled in the satisfaction that I could complete more than the day before. I was proud to work there, even if it was for a very short period of time. The company was preparing for their seasonal bi-annual sale. Show less

      Mother, Wife & Homemaker

      For the past 13 years I have kept my skills current in MS Word and MS Excel. As a stay at home mother of four, I have learned to manage time and meet deadlines. Even though situations arise at home, I am able to meet my children's needs with patience and logical reasoning. I have strong values that I continue to uphold and teach my children by example. I am not easily satisfied by mediocrity. If I see room for improvement, I research and learn how to best edify a situation and then make it happen. I have a bubbly attitude which helps keep a positive attitude in our home. Show less

      I have been using the Young Living Essential Oils for several years. I have also studied several therapeutic qualities for the different oils. With this knowledge I am able to suggest certain essential oils when an aliment or chronic problem comes to my attention. I am to stay aware of the others in need of the healing relief these essential oils have to offer. The essential oil is the life of the plant, and it is distilled in a few ways that keep the potency at its highest potential.I do hope to expand my distributorship to massage clinics or likewise other company that Young Living Essential Oils would change the experience for those receiving the oil benefits.

      Baker not Candlestick Maker

      In 2010, I excitedly took on a four tier "Topsy Turvy"​ cake, for my twin cousins. They requested that each level alternated fondant styles of zebra and cheetah print. I even went to the creative level of recreating the cake batter to bake in the same print patterns, Inside to be revealed as it was cut. Since that first cake I have learned so many more techniques and have taken classes from "Wilton" along the way.I can recreate your dream cake. Show me a few pictures you have in mind and I will show you the many ways I can fill your cake with taste and memories. I have made Mario Bros game board, monster cupcakes, angry birds, gymnastics, swirling piano, cupcake cakes, cub scout cakes, mad hatter cakes, sleepover cakes, etc... See more in pictures below.
