Summary
Since I was 13 years old, I have worked in some sort of summer camp as a volunteer counselor or group leader. I have extensive experience in engaging camp kids and getting them interested in camp activities. I can follow instructions well and guide the kids toward doing the same. I am good at keeping an eye out for safety concerns and alerting camp management when those concerns arise. I can administer first aid and CPR effectively. I have also had experience with individuals with special or different needs, and I know how to handle those situations safely and effectively.
