Wendy’s Bio

Hi. Thanks for reviewing my page. I am going to start out by telling you what assets I have that are also the most important to me. I am honest. You will never be lied to or told I can do something that I can't. I am trustworthy. You will never be lied to or taken advantage of or have anything come up "missing". I will always treat your family, your pet, your home and yourself with the respect and dignity you deserve. I will listen to how you want things done and never ignore you and just do it "my way". You will come first. Helping others is my true passion in life. This love I have for people started back in high school. Let me explain.
I started my first job as a waitress at Ponderosa Steakhouse at the age of 14. I quickly realized how my job of helping people helped me as well. It felt good when I saw them smile and I truly enjoyed seeing that they had a good time. It made me feel as though I was giving something back. So there it was...I knew I wanted to help people.
After graduating high school I had waitressing jobs, convenient state jobs and one factory job in which I hated. Standing in one spot with no one to talk to was not for me. I landed a phlebotomist job at our local hospital and loved it. Finally, at age 28, I made it to Ivy Tech State College where I got my Licensed Practical Nursing Degree. After graduating I became a charge nurse for Ben Hour Nursing Home where I worked for 2.5 years. The hours were long and we never had enough help. I was getting wore out. I then began doing private home health care and really enjoyed it but wanted to learn more. I took on a part time job which became full time rather quickly as a secretary/receptionist/accountant you name it and I did it type job. It was for a real estate office in which they also owned three other businesses. I was the weekly payroll clerk, I did all of the accounts payable/receivable for all 3 businesses. I wrote up escrow accounts, made up all of the newspaper ads for houses we were selling and still got to work with the public.
We planned, got planned, and gave birth to our daughter on July 13, 2003. Our son came in August of 2007. I became a stay at home mom and spouse to whom I have been with for twenty years this past January. I started working again last year and am ready to get back to what I do best which is helping people. So if you are looking for someone who is sincere in what they do then call me. You will quickly see that I was the right choice. Thank you!
