"After graduating with my Bachelors degree in International Marketing from UMASS Lowell, I began my business career as a Marketing Assistant for a local company. I used databases at that job, and also learned some desktop publishing on the Macintosh computer. Since many companies were starting to use Windows PCs, there was a lot of need for training at that time. I began working as an independent contractor and taught computer skills to various clients. Being a private contractor allowed me the time to attain my MBA at night at Bentley College. I currently contract to different companies in Boston and the suburbs, teaching different computer programs. In addition to Office, I teach Microsoft Access, Project, and I know a little about FrontPage. I came to New Beginnings in October of 2004 and have really enjoyed helping people who really want to learn, and with a staff who prides themselves in giving them the tools to do so.

Computer training has been a very nice occupation for a mom. With a husband and two children, I’ve been able to learn new programs at home, teach a couple days per week, and still be involved in volunteer work with my children. Last year I led two Girl Scout troops and taught 2 religious classes per week. I also volunteer at my daughters’ school.

My main goal is to get back to “what I wanted to be when I grew up”. I’ve always wanted to write, and I have submitted some pieces to my favorite magazine. My goal is to submit more."
