(both) My work experience and education have (both) provided me- with "both being implied in either part of the sentence.



However, this is not a strong opening sentence for a resume. There is nothing to suggest that your work experience, or your education provided an "extensive background in business."



"I have an extensive background in business, beginning with my x years, at X school, majoring in x, followed by x years working in x areas of business."
