Summary

Working as both deli cook and lifeguard has made me very good at communicating with both people who need assistance, such as costumers and swimmers, as well as made me great at working with a team. I enjoy helping people and providing assistance. I'm always willing to answer any questions and will commit to tending to the needs of people I am helping Additionally, In both jobs I have to work in tandem with my coworkers to do the job right. I enjoy being a part of a team and assisting my team mates whenever I can. My extracurricular of choice is guitar playing and being able to write music with my band has also enhanced my ability to work with people to achieve a common goal.
