The employment at Tops Friendly Markets was short, a year. However, the short duration was due to a few circumstances.

1. It was established with employer that it was not my intention or a goal to stay in this position for long-term. My goal was to fulfill a full year and in that time I was to return to school. I took a soil science course at SUNY ACC and attended the necessary programs to obtain two certifications; both through New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.

1. Certified in Erosion control; specifically focused on initial assessment. In the field, working directly with a variety of clients. Certification responsibilities included providing clients with sustainable solutions to the erosion site, then the planning phase and creating detailed written plans and often included drafting the visual plan, lastly supervising the solution until completed.

2. Certification in Wetland restricted areas and working with homeowners or companies that have been notified by the state that they have or potentially put a wetland's ecosystem at risk and the solutions, often times; sensitive conversations and hard decisions were required to have with the individuals and families.

Certified to discuss at length the specific issue that required addressing, solutions and finally providing the best possible resources for remediating the initial concern for both parties.

This short term employment agreement was fulfilled and it's to the best of my knowledge, that I can re-apply and would be welcomed back. I set and met my personal goals and allowed me to gain experience in areas that were unexpected and necessary. In March, I was prepared to finally start the process of owning a small business. This allowed me to successfully do so, with confidence in my skills and experience.
