About Debra Gillespie

I am currently looking for a position in the data entry/accounting/clerical fields. I'm proficient with Excel and Word plus Outlook, and can do 13,000 ksh which is about 55 wpm. When I'm at work I'm obsessed with accuracy and staying within deadlines, plus organizing data correctly. I'm very conscientous about doing the work right the first time, as I know mistakes can hurt profits and the employer's trust in me. I've been known for being dependable and arriving at work on time - in fact, I'd be worried if I was going to be late for a root canal at the dentist.
