Work History

Lifeguard

Terra Linda Community Pool
05.2023 - Current

As a lifeguard, I ensured the safety of all patrons by maintaining constant surveillance, enforcing pool rules, and responding quickly to emergencies. Certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED, and I am experienced in performing rescues and administering First Aid when necessary. I conducted regular inspections, chemical tests, and equipment maintenance to ensure that cleanliness and safety standards were upheld. I educated swimmers on water safety, assisted with community events, and participated in ongoing training to stay current with rescue techniques. I also collaborated with team members during emergency drills, and promptly reported any unsafe conditions or incidents to management. My supervisors are aware that I am open to covering any shifts and providing support when needed.

Coordinator

I coordinated online events and webinars for diverse audiences, supported team collaboration to improve workflows, and helped maintain workshops and parent engagement initiatives. I organized virtual meetings to ensure effective communication among parent participants, implemented feedback systems to gather user insights, and addressed technical issues with platforms like Zoom.
