A Renaissance Woman is defined by Dictionary.com as:
Renaissance woman
noun ( sometimes lowercase
)
a woman who has acquired profound knowledge or proficiency in more than one field.
According to Wikipedia, a more recent term for Renaissance Woman is Polymath. While I'll agree to both terms, I prefer the romanticism that Renaissance Woman invokes. :)
Another phrase that's been around for quite some time (although the second half is not widely known):
Jack of all trades, master of none,
though ofttimes better than master of one.
-Geffray Mynshul (1618).
So, basically a Renaissance Woman is one that's been trained in a variety of disciplines and has proficiency in all of those. When looking at my full resume, you would find that I have been largely self-trained, and am proficient in:
Writing (both fiction and non-fiction), Copywriting, Marketing and Advertising, Photography (commercial, product, portraits, and stock photography), basic graphic design, website design (again, basic... I can work with template and insert a small amount of HTML code), website content, basic computer troubleshooting,
My job descriptions have included: retail sales, cashier, administrative assistant, executive assistant, travel agent, photographer, marketing assistant, marketing associate, customer service, office manager, accounting assistant, full-charge bookkeeper, freelance writer, freelance photographer, freelance bookkeeper, freelance marketing consultant, treasurer (volunteer), social media (volunteer), graphic designer, newsletter publisher, personal banker, bank teller, personal assistant, landman, dispatcher, event coordinator, and others that I've since forgotten. :)
The industries that I have worked in (whether freelance or as an employee) have been varied, but I have in-depth experience in Construction, Real Estate, Oil & Gas, Manufacturing, and Transportation.
My interests (non-paid) is an even longer list, but have included reading, learning Texas civil (custody) law, dancing, crafting, scrapbooking, sustainability, earth sciences, and many, many more.
I intend for this blog to be a showcase for the type of work that I do, the type that I'm interested in, and a little more about what makes me tick. ;) The majority of posts will be work-related, but there will also be posts on what I've enjoyed studying (non-work-related), too.
If you have questions, please feel free to ask!
