Curriculum Vitae of Cara Woollacott

Cara WoollacottI have been married for 23 years and have 2 sons aged 21 and 17. I am a hardworking, prompt and pleasant individual who has a positive impact in the office environment, where I use my MS Office (and organisational) skills to create an efficient working environment.
