I worked at Athleta, which is a workout company, and I helped many people find the right clothing fit for their style. I also made sure that everyone felt comfortable in their skin. This job has taught me how to communicate really well with others and find the perfect workout clothing for them.

I have participated in many psychology labs. One was with a Brain Cap, and they measured my brain activity while playing a video game. Another lab that I participated in was a VR set, where I was also on a treadmill, and they measured all of my pulses. I have also participated in many more Labs so I could get the experience of what it's like to be a participant and see how certain labs work.

Being a babysitter has been a real eye-opener for me. It's shown me how to really connect with kids, no matter their background or abilities. I've laughed with them, comforted them through tears, and seen firsthand the rollercoaster of emotions they go through. It's made me think about maybe pursuing a career where I can help kids grow and understand themselves even better.

I worked as a hostess/server at a restaurant called Chisos. This job taught me to communicate with others, making sure that every order was correct. It also taught me how to be organized in a chaotic situation when time gets super busy.
