Brooke Mullins
Norfolk
Summary
Always the first to step up and take charge, I have found success in my initiative, whether it be in the workplace, in my school environment, or a part of my extracurriculars. Though I juggle a lot on my plate, my time-management and problem-solving skills allow me to make time for it all, from being a full-time University student while also managing employment opportunities. While it isn't always easy, my drive and ambition push me to do the best I can in all that I do while maintaining a positive, can-do attitude all the while.
