Personal Assistant Research Paper

Good Morning Sarah,

I would love to tell you I have experience in being someone else's personal assistant, however, I have not. I have been a very successful and a very active single mother of two very active children(who are now grown) while working a full-time office job, volunteering, and finishing my bachelor's degree in psychology. Truth be told, I like helping others and I like getting things done and taking pride in my work by doing it right and paying attention to detail. I do feel, at my age (45), I have experienced quite a bit and I am comfortable with almost any normal household duties and living responsibilities. I also respect the fact that other's like things done a certain way and I am a fast learner. I am also a great listener

    I have wanted to become an Occupational Therapy Assistant since I was in 7th grade. The school I went to housed all of the special needs children for the county. I grew up with these children in my classes and always wanted them to know that just because they have the label special needs does not mean that they are different from anybody else. I watched an OTA come to school everyday and work with these children to help them write better and kick a ball so they could go to P.E. with us. I thought to myself what an amazing job opportunity this would be to let people know that they can do anything they set their mind to.…
