Summary
I've been an Ocean Lifeguard for the past six summers in Seaside Heights, New Jersey. As I graduate from Elmira College in May of 2025 with a Business Administration Degree, I'm looking to attain a position with a Sanitation Department within Westchester County. I feel that my education combined with my strong work ethic and training makes me a strong candidate for this position. I'm a highly motivated individual trained with helping others as a first responder for the past six summers while I completed my college education.
