Summary
The creative elements that constitute my interests as a rising senior at the University of New Haven consistent of my love of literature, studying art and history, songwriting and making music. My ultimate goals are to pursue a master's degree in library science and to continue to create music as a songwriter and keyboardist. I believe that my creativity, organizational skills and effective people skills will allow me to meet the needs of library patrons of all ages. Global libraries have always supported the arts, including music, which I hope to incorporate into my professional goals.
With years of experience in the work force, I have provided excellent customer service. I have been efficient and responsible with handling money and taking directives from management. Exhibiting trouble-shooting and problem solving issues during work hours is one of my many strengths. Also, working in a team environment requires one to think of others first to get the job done.
