  • Using methods that I had used to improve my ACT score from a 28(practice) to a 34, I utilized a variety of teaching styles and methodologies to accommodate diverse student learning preferences, ensuring optimal comprehension and retention of material.

  • In high school, I worked with a small insurance consulting company coordinated through a work program at my high school.
  • Initially, I assisted a few insurance brokers and served as an overall problem solver for anyone who need assistance. Later, I performed opening and closing tasks, ordered supplies, scheduled client meeting and zoom appointments.
  • Eventually, I communicated directly with clients, addressing concerns that arose regarding employee benefits or service. In addition, I became very proficient at Excel spreadsheets that were required for clients to analyze benefits versus costs of group health, dental, life, short and long term disability benefits.
  • This work was primarily for mid- sized companies and oftentimes included multimillion dollar budgets. Attention to detail was important and I learned to create accurate analysis that I was proud helped acquire or retain clients.
