Meet The Team: Paula A.
BACKGROUND WITH CAREER:
"I came to The Walker Group in November of 2015 after being in medical manufacturing for 14 years and I would have to say it was the best move of my life! I love the profession I am in and the people I work with. There is not one person at Walker who would not go out of their way to help you.
My job can be demanding at times but I am not one who likes to sit around and not be working. As they say, my job is like playing Tetris and I am central control!"
MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT YOUR JOB:
"It is hard to pinpoint the most important as there are so many factors about my job. I would have to say accuracy. If things are not right, it can go south pretty fast."
FAVORITE TECH DEVICE AND WHY?
"Does kitchen appliances count?"
WHAT WOULD YOUR SUPERPOWER BE?
"To be invisible. I love to help and get things done but hate being the center of attention. I will do anything for anyone personally or professionally but just do not put me on the spot unless you want to see a babbling, red, embarrassed person."
HOW HAS YOUR LIFE CHANGED DURING THE PANDEMIC?
"The biggest change is realizing how much you really miss family and friends -- human interaction, rather than Zoom interaction (but thank goodness for that technology!).
On the brighter side, it has given me some serious quality time with my new dog, Murphy Jack, and my sock drawer actually has matching socks now! "
FUN FACTS:
"I am a huge family person and, for those who know me, I love to cook and bake. "
"I make homemade wine, peppers and relish. Looking forward to learning something else to jar!"
"I love to entertain. Seeing everyone happy, laughing and enjoying the food you prepare makes me feel good. "
"My husband and my dog are my world."
WE ARE PROUD TO BE
