I am very detail-oriented and love working on the computer. I create an Excel spreadsheet out of anything I can think of for fun in my free time. I am a fast typer, but would love to improve. I recently took a 2-minute test on monkeytype and typed 97wpm with 97% accuracy. I love puzzles and like any jobs where I can organize things in a way that seems to fit all the pieces of the puzzle together. I like to accomplish projects. I have been found being late to pick my kids up from events because I got side-tracked at the used bookstore alphabetizing their books, or at Wal-mart organizing the LEGO shelves. I have also beta-read many books in The Green Ember Series by S.D. Smith and a friend's currently unpublished historical fiction book, Spero. I am very old-school and strongly dislike AI, so please do not send me a job offer to help make AI better.
