Hello Everyone!
My name is Anna and I was born and raised in Philadelphia. I moved out to Tucson, AZ to escape the cold winters and that is where I fell on the path of a Human Resources career. I was given an amazing opportunity in as a Human Resources Representative and have been working in the same field for several years now. I am an undergraduate majoring in HR/Labor and Employment Relations studies with about 13 more credits to go! 😊 I want to continue to grow and learn to become a subject matter expert in various areas.
I currently live in Florida, and now working as a Senior HR Generalist for a non-profit organization that helps children to adults with special needs. Our organization provides preschool care, day programs and group residential homes, and an autism center. We also offer a variety of community-based programs and assist with employment support and living. Helping others and especially individuals with special needs has been really rewarding and humbling. Working in this environment means a lot to me as I personally have an older brother who is developmentally and physically challenged. I enjoy seeing our clients each day with huge smiles on their faces and wanting to just live, laugh and have fun like anyone else. I love volunteering to all our sponsored events, knowing what impact that every donation can make.
My husband I enjoy living in Florida with our Italian Greyhound. We enjoy being close to our PA family, and we enjoy kayaking, fishing, relaxing at all our beautiful beaches and traveling.
Hello Professor Pedro,
I live in Tampa Bay, FL. I am between St. Pete and Clearwater, FL. Orlando is not far and we take time here and there to go and enjoy the different Disney properties. My family all live in Philadelphia area, so I drive up often or a short flight and visit them as much as I can.
Safe travels and best of luck on your new adventure! = )
