My name is Arturo Mendoza, and I'm a student in the Urban and Metropolitan Studies School at ASU in downtown Phoenix where will hope to complete my degree no later than 2011. I'm originally from Guadalajara, Mexico. As a kid, I took public transportation to school, and I traveled all over the city on my own. I made money taking lunch orders from executives and delivering lunches to their offices. It was a very different upbringing than what is typical for most of my classmates at ASU.
I've lived in downtown Phoenix for the past 25 years. I can walk to work at the Phoenix Municipal Court, where I've been for just over two and half years. I'm an assistant supervisor in the customer service department. I'm using my current job as my internship due to the fact that I'm a full time employee and thus not able to intern for a different agency. I really like my job, and I want to continue at this city or one that is more pedestrian friendly and cosmopolitan, like San Francisco or New York, which I visit frequently.
I like your job, and fact that it is convenience for your. One of my dream jobs a few years ago was to work in a court room as a legal secretary or paralegal.
ReplyDeleteI like new experiences;it makes me feel rounded. I actually graduated with a two-year degree in paralegal Studies, but I'm not working in the field. I decided to obtain my bachelor's degree since the economic is not stable.
