Summary

From a young age, I was drawn to outdoor adventures. Growing up near Lake Allatoona and Red Top Mountain, I frequently hiked and camped with friends and family. My time as a Boy Scout took me on numerous camping trips across the southeastern United States, where I developed a strong sense of teamwork. This skill later flourished through my participation in middle school band and high school theater. At 13, I became a certified scuba diver, further fueling my passion for exploration. Additionally, I’ve developed a unique style through thrifting and antiquing and enjoyed connecting with friends through online gaming.

  • Working at Pizza Hut while maintaining my lifeguard position helped me broaden my skill set beyond the workplace and into my daily life.
  • It was a dynamic experience that allowed me to apply a wide range of skills.
  • In the spring, I decided to leave my lifeguard job to focus more on school, family, friends, and personal hobbies.

Lifeguard

Cherokee County Aquatics
Woodstock
05.2019 - 12.2021
  • As a lifeguard certified by Star and the Red Cross, I acquired essential CPR and first aid skills that were crucial for the job.
  • One of the most valuable skills I developed through experience was scanning. This technique involves systematically surveying my area, both visually and through muscle memory, to detect any unusual situations.
  • For instance, at an aquatic center with a large pool full of swim students, my role required me to observe not just the surface but also what's happening underneath, as well as to keep an eye on distant areas and what's immediately in front of me.
  • This comprehensive scanning approach allowed me to anticipate and address potential issues before they arose.
