Jen Butera

My name is Jen Butera, and I have an A.A. in business and recently completed my B.A. in marketing. For the past 20 years I worked in the administrative field, and now I find myself at a career crossroads. Creative projects have always sparked my interests, but it was not until college that I found my passion for writing. Mathematics made me sweat bullets while essay-based courses were normally completed with ease. Rarely did I find writing guidelines that were difficult to meet, no matter what the subject. At first I was unsure of my newly found skills, but after several classes had passed, my grades had me convinced (let's forget about the math grades though, shall we?).

Time passed quickly, and July 2010 marked the date of my graduation. In the anticipation of finishing school I was stoked about entering the marketing field. For years I saw people get hired right out of college and into positions that were above an administrative assistant. I wanted the same to happen for me, and envisioned getting that dream job. After all these years I would finally get my very own cubicle and a higher salary. Well...not exactly. The current economy and struggling job market forced me to change that vision. After some soul searching I decided to live up to my motto and do something I love. So here I am - ready to embark on the real world of online writing. Hopefully people will enjoy my work as much as I enjoy creating it.
