About candidate

About you
I have an ecclectic background; television production, mortgage industry experience, non-profit experience. All with a focus on back end-office work. I helped create one of my previous employer's first knowledge bases and helped oversaw it's management for five years. At my current role, I am also help build their own knowledge base as nothing they do is documented.
What are you looking for in a new role?
I'm looking for a job that let's me dive back into true knowledge managment. I enjoyed making sure things were written well, and easy to find for all staff members. I also enjoyed giving new hires tools to get on their feet faster, now that they have a knowledge base to reference.
What you are interested in working with us?
It sounds like a new and interesting challenge for me professionally and I'd love the opporunity to build on my skills from previously creating and running a knowledge base.
What has been most challenging experience in a past role?
There were some challenges in getting leadership to see the value of documenting expectations in that they didn't want staff to slow down production in order to get edit or write these documents. Fortunately I had the support of the executive team to ensure we got things off the ground.

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am interested in applying for the position of Knowledge Base Administrator. I recently moved to the Los Angeles area from Pittsburgh after my husband received an amazing job opportunity. I’ve had a wonderful time working with a nation-wide non-profit organization that provides home-buying education to low-income families, but I find myself re-evaluating the prioritization of my own personal product backlog. I am looking for a team, an employer, a leader that can see the potential in my past experiences and allow me to deliver value to their company and customers.

I have had an eclectic career path, from Broadway set design, working on live and animated TV series, entering the mortgage industry with zero experience, and helping to roll out new processes like establishing our first Scrum Team and building our first Knowledge Management System.

I am looking for my next big adventure and I feel my interest in and prioritization of providing transparency, removing obstacles for others, and delivering value to my employer makes me a great fit for your team.

I thank you for your consideration. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
