About

Born with autism and severe anxiety into a household of neglect, I spent a lot of my time to myself growing up on the computer. It was here I learned that I had a passion for information and analytics. I find myself growing myself and my skills every day, breaking past boundaries I once believed were my weaknesses, but were in fact my strengths. I intend to bring love and diversity everywhere I go to brighten the mood.

I have skills pertaining to academic writing and reporting, information computing, time management, effective team communication, and project management. I look forward to finding an opportunity one day that puts me in a position of control. That way, I can help improve the lives of those around me with my confidence and vision. I want to help people like me who were struggling find their place and get the opportunities I'm given.

I want to show people most of all that it's okay to be themselves and to speak their mind, even if they disagree with us. Helping build a more transparent, social environment is the most effective way to build trust within a team.

Let's connect here on LinkedIn! I'm open to any available opportunities to me, and am looking for work experience pertaining to information management, analytics, and data entry!

Thank you very much for your time,
Bethany (James) Searle
