Summary
As a dedicated student first, and a athlete, mentor, model second, I've been put in many situations where I've worked with others. I've grown to understand the works of time management, balancing my friendships, school work, extracurricular, sports, and teamwork. Things like my volunteer history (BoysnGirls club, non-profit kitchen work, elementary school teacher helper, etc.) have helped me understand, while also guiding me to know how to handle myself in stressful situations, as well as effectively communicate with peers to get the important things accomplished. Along with my job-like experiences, I also feel as though I have fun personality and empathize well with others; this has proven to make me a great leader in any situation I'm put in. I love helping others, and although I have many qualities, I feel like my immense passion for people's happiness ultimately qualifies me to work at any location.
