About Katie Dion:
I want to obtain a position as a team player in a people-oriented organization where I can maximize my customer service experience in a challenging environment to achieve corporate goals. For fun, I like to walk around the city looking at art until my body hurts, write music, and make stained glass. I have been in the restaurant industry for over seven years. I would like to obtain a data entry-like position while I continue working on obtaining my degree in psychology and addiction studies.
