Until June of 2013, I spent most of my career in the entertainment industry. The game changer was when I attended the PSOW Corporate Etiquette and International Protocol Consultant Training, By September 2013 I had launched Anne Wootten and Associates and since then I have been carefully building a clientele that spans all walks of life. Interacting with a variety of people has been one of the aspects hat I always enjoyed about show business and it has continued into my new venture. For many years, I worked with all kinds of artists from aspiring young actors to opera divas and movie stars, and now I use my directing skills in my new business to help my clients achieve an accomplished performance in their respective industries. I am ready to take this approach to a more international diplomatic level in the United States and Canada. These are early days for my new business, and attending the course is not in the budget for me at this time. Receiving the scholarship to attend the Protocol Officer Training would be an honour and a privilege. Thank you for considering my candidacy.
