Summary

As a confident multitasker and quick learner, I have a talent for consistently contributing to a compassionate and engaging work environment. While learning how to work as a leader alongside my peers, engaging in environments at Riverdale YM-YWHA allowed me to foster strong relationships through a unique blend of my empathetic heart and professionalism skills. With knowledge of communication strategies and experience with Microsoft Word, I've learned to manage tasks and teams of my peers, as well as write high-quality reports. My confidence and people skills have led me to be able to create and maintain strong interpersonal relationships with everyone I come across at work.
