Q: Charlotte, tell us about your personal contributions to Transcription Plus, LLC.
A: I love working for Transcription Plus! I am currently working in rheumatology and cardiology and I am being trained in pathology. My past experience includes 19 years of orthopedics with a bit of urology, family medicine, neurology, sports medicine and pain management. I’m a generalist and enjoy all of my work!

Q: How do you describe your work style?
A: I’m a workaholic – and that works for me! I like to get started early in the morning – you might find this odd, but I have a treadmill desk and I stand or walk while I work. I am very busy with my work for Transcription Plus and after work, I teach ballet.

Q: That sounds very productive. How would a good friend describe you?
A: This is always a tough question! My friends would say I am warm, kind and caring.

Q: What do you like about living in Massachusetts?
A: I’m getting to know Southern Massachusetts since moving here recently. The people are fabulous! I live on the outskirts of town and have a private lot with lots of trees and wild life – and I love that. I didn’t get a true sense of a New England Winter – but this year is a new year so anything can happen. My husband enjoys our cooler evenings too.

Q: Outside of your career, what goals have you set for yourself?
A: Being new to the area, I would love to fix up my house exactly the way I want. Dance is a passion and I am very happy teaching ballet – it’s a big part of my life! My children live all over the world – Oregon, Tennessee, Dublin Ireland and Germany – and I would like to travel to see all of them.

Q: What does success mean to you?
A: Success means accomplishing what you set out to do to the best of your ability and satisfaction. My husband was unemployed for 3 years and I consider myself and my husband successful in our ability to pay our bills. You need a very good balance in life – my transcription work pays the bills, which is important. Dance pays the soul – also important!

Q: Tell me about your hobbies and interests outside of work.
A: Did I mention I am a workaholic? I don’t have a lot of time for hobbies, but I do enjoy working on my new house and yard.

Q: What motivates you?
A: Does that mean, what gets me out of bed in the morning? That combination of business and pleasure – my transcription work is my business and teaching ballet to the next generation is my pleasure! Both get my heart pumping!

Q: Do you consider yourself a compassionate person and why?
A: Yes, definitely. I care about the trials and tribulations, the joy and sorrows of my friends.

Q: If you could accomplish one thing this year, what would it be?
A: Unpack! Five months ago, right before we moved into our house – a pipe broke flooding the entire house! Needless to say we had a total renovation and have been living in one part of the house while work has been done. Tight quarters with the two of us and our 3 dogs and 4 cats! I look forward to our future!
