Summary

Passionate about community service and fostering educational growth, volunteer work at Edwards-Elmhurst Hospital ignited love for the medical field. I then demonstrated leadership, adaptability, and team-building skills, significantly contributing to team efforts and program successes. I emphasized teamwork and effective communication and excelled in enhancing children's love for science and math at DuPage Children's Museum. There, I developed interpersonal and time management skills instrumental as a Teaching Assistant focusing on special education students. The experience taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and multitasking in achieving success.
