From mid September through late May I fulfill the role of sole custodian at Spruce Lake. Custodian duties include, cleaning and maintaining all 'public' restrooms, common areas, foyers, hallways and lobbies. I am responsible for cleaning and setting up meeting rooms. I set up conference style, theater style or otherwise requested by guests. Set in includes audio and video equipment in addition to tables and chairs. I am responsible for carpet cleaning, routine and spot cleaning.
During the summers, late May through mid September, I am the pool manager. Duties for pool manager include, fielding daily reports, checking chemical levels, cleaning the pool and filters, maintaining and monitoring equipment, scheduling lifeguards, lifeguard training and certification, planing and facilitating Inservice training for lifeguards, first aid, and active lifeguarding in regular rotations.
I also maintain the kayaks and paddle boats on the lake. I train and schedule staff to work the boats and watch the lake when it is in use. I occasionally take shifts down at the lake as well. We do not allow swimming in the lake just boating and fishing.
Year round I am on call to respond to first aid needs, as well as stocking and maintaining the first aid equipment and supplies.

While working at the Swim-In Zone I life guarded during open swims, swimming lessons, swim meets and pool parties. I was a fill in instructor for the entire spectrum of swim classes from parent child, to beginners to swim team to adult learner to stroke perfection. I was responsible for keeping the pool and pool deck clean, monitoring chemical levels, maintaining records, cleaning restrooms and general cleaning of the facility.

I transferred to DeSales and switched my major to Nursing. I studies Nursing for one year from August 2009 through May 2010. I did one in hospital clinical. I enjoyed Nursing very much but had to drop out due to financial difficulties.
