Summary
I’m currently studying Business Administration at Miami Dade College, working toward my associate degree with plans to earn a bachelor’s in business and eventually attend law school. I’ve worked as a school office aide and teacher assistant, gaining experience in organization, communication, and supporting staff with lesson planning. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I’ve received awards for both academic excellence and people skills. I also have hands-on experience in basic construction through NCCER certifications, which taught me teamwork, time management, and problem-solving. I’m driven, adaptable, and excited to grow.
