Leasing Agent/Consultant for The Palms at CL
->for now. I may go back to being an Insurance Agent, though, soon. (My Trans Am wants new shoes..lol)

And probably going to start working @ Sherlock's or somewhere pt/time on the evenings as a 2nd job for extra money (having an almost-stock car is driving me nuts!)

I monitor production schedules and look for ways to make things more efficient and train the scheduling staffs at the company's 3 facilities in TX, MD, and IN.

The owner likes to try to fix everything with scheduling so we change the way we schedule too often.
