Through my experiences of working, firstly as a cashier, I have devolved an ability to welcome everyone and acknowledge my customer’s presence. While additionally, meeting their needs and standards in the restaurant or store. As a camp counselor, I have adapted myself to work with peers on tasks that need to be completed while also ensuring the safety, necessities, and satisfaction of the campers. I have learned to problem solve effectively and keep a positive enforcement. With both my work expierence, the satisfaction of my customers is priority and being flexible to obtain this goal is always in mind. Carrying my positive high energy attitude, I make it my responsibility for the customers satisfaction.
• As a camp counselor I worked every week day (8:30am-4:00pm) during the summer. The kids ranged from a variety of ages and personality’s. Through out this camp, I was able to learn how to become a role model for younger generations and become flexible to all the kids needs.
• Ensured camper safety by enforcing camp rules, supervising group activities, and responding promptly to incidents or concerns.
• Collaborated with other camp counselors to design fun and enriching learning activities for campers.
• Developed strong relationships with co-counselors that resulted in seamless teamwork during challenging situations or emergencies.
•Participated in regular staff meetings to discuss strategies for improvement in areas such as programming, behavior management, and staff training.
Through out my life, my family has always been a family to give back to those who are in need. Taking this task into my own hands, I have made it a huge priority to give back to my community. I find significant joy when serving others and always have fell into a community that I love to spend my time with. I have accomplished 200 service hours through my high school career and continue to spend my time doing so as I feel giving back to our community is extremely important. With my experience I have learned so much about others and see them as my friends who just need a hand. I have built strong friendships with my peers who help me serve and I am able to share these positive experiences amongst this group.
Another accomplishment is my engagement through my church, West Minister Presbyterian. After becoming an elder at my church, I have guided my peers in finding relationships with others. Coming from a school that is extremely Catholic, I have been able to share these experiences with younger kids and elders in speaking groups. Through this I have found a love for understanding others on a deeper level while also exchanging differences to become more aware of others beliefs and lives. West Minister has allowed me to become a role model to all sorts of ages, whether that be teaching in Sunday school or teaching elders about my high school life. Regardless, I have found a passion for meeting others and understanding my peers.
