PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

The process involved ensuring all information was shared between providers and each effort was fully coordinated.

ADMINISTRATOR'S SECRETARY

• As a result of the CA Governor's decision to convert education funding from program-based to locally-controlled funding, the Riverside County Office of Education made the decision to transition the traditional BTSA program to a mostly-online program, mandating the program become financially independent from the RCOE. The decision would result in the future elimination of many department Administrator and support positions responsible for providing traditional hands-on training for the following academic year. This in turn affected my position the day following the successful launch of the online BTSA program occurring on 9/18/2013.

Shortly thereafter, a family member became seriously ill, delaying my relocation, which was eventually completed in December of 2012.
