Summary
I am current undergraduate student at Temple University as a Political Science Pre-Law Major with a minor in Sports Management. I actively participate in the law fraternity and the Afro-Latinx club here at Temple. Being engaged with these associations, while being a student, has allowed me to better my leadership skills, communication skills, time management, and teamwork skills.
When not in school, I work as a lifeguard for the City of Philadelphia community pools. Working as a Skilled Lifeguard consistently allows me to remain calm and focused in stressful environments. Moreover, has given me the experience of promoting safety in and around large bodies of water and being certified in First Aid/CPR/AED.
Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.
