I truly enjoy owning my own business and being a self-employed Mary Kay consultant. It's such a joy to serve others and make yourself happy at the same time.

Recruiting & Employment Specialist
Vail Marriott Mountain Resort & Spa
(Hospitality industry)
October 2005 — May 2006 (8 months)
The Vail Marriott Mountain Resort & Spa is one of the premier resorts in Vail, CO. I worked there in a two fold capacity. I came in as an intern at the Front Desk. After working there for my internship requirements and a little after I was asked to move up into a Human Resources position. This position was the Recruiting & Employment Specialist. This was a wonderful opportunity that gave me great perspective on how huge our world really is. I met and became friends with students from over 15 different countries. I left this position to move back to Michigan.
