Summary
An ambitious and highly motivated individual who recently graduated with a Bachelor's in psychology from Colorado State University. I am an excellent verbal and written communicator, critical problem solver, and team player. In college, made the Dean's list twice for academic excellence, and I am certain my career will progress in a similar manner of work production as well. I found a passion for working with children a few years ago when I started working at a summer camp in Boulder, and I'm very excited for all of the opportunities that will let me expand on this passion in the future.
