Debbie Solano's Summary

My goal is to be Northeast Oklahoma's top producer in selling country estates, farms, ranches, and other horse properties. I lived on a farm in Rogers County for 16 years.

I worked as a law librarian and corporate records manager (Acquisitions Librarian at Albany Law School and Librarian and Records Manager for the General Counsel of Gulf Oil Corporation). I was a public librarian (Head Librarian at Hardesty South Regional Library in Tulsa). I also ran a business called Library & Records Management Services, Inc.

I worked as an executive secretary for a commercial real estate development firm (Henson-Williams Realty).

I was a serials cataloger at the main library at Southern Methodist University.

I was a help desk worker (Sabre, Inc.) translating technical documents into French and putting them on the intranet for use when assisting French-speaking travel agents with computer problems.

I was a public school teacher (Madison Middle School in Bartlesville); I taught first year French classes and foreign language introductory classes to middle schoolers using the Total Physical Response Storytelling (TPRS) method.

I was a legal assistant in an immigration law firm.

I was an intern at an Episcopal Church. I was the Director of Religious Education and Youth Minister at a Roman Catholic Church.
