2021, week 17: A Breakdown of my Resume

Hi, everyone. So, this week we're going to do something a little different. My life will be changing dramatically in the next month: I'll be graduating college, leaving my job, moving to a new town, job hunting, and figuring out what I want to do next.

So, this week I wanted to do a breakdown of my resume. This isn't quite what I'd send out to a potential employer, but this summarizes my skills and experience. This starts with the job I'm currently at and works back to the job I had after I graduated high school (although I had 2 jobs whilst in high school).

Well, there you have it. You've glimpsed at my professional and educational life. Was there anything that surprised you?


As I mentioned, I'll be leaving my job, so I'm going to start job hunting! Based on my skills and experience what type of job do you think I should apply for?

I'll be moving to Salt Lake City this fall, but would like to find a job that I can do remotely this summer while I stay at my parents' house. Know of any jobs? (Feel free to email me any job leads, at the email above.)

Love,
D. J. Lathrop
