Summary

A responsible and dedicated second-year college student that graduated high school with honors. Excellent time management, customer service skills, and a team player. Seeking to apply my work ethic and people skills to a team-oriented and customer-centered working environment. I have strong communication skills; I work well with others and enjoy interacting with the community. I strive to ensure individuals have a pleasant experience and understand the value of high-quality customer service. Leadership As noted, in high school, I was involved with several clubs and organizations and prided myself as an interactive member that people could depend on. I have a very high work ethic and pride myself on doing a superior job in all that I do. I was co-president of the HOSA club (Health Occupation Students Association Club)and treasurer of the Interact club, so I understand the value of money management and its responsibility. At Penn State Harrisburg, I am involved in Thon and Captain for the Family Relations committee. Thon is an organization that raises money, awareness, and support for children with childhood cancer. So as the Captain for Family Relations, I communicate with the families that have been “assigned” to the Harrisburg campus, and I help plan events for them to come and meet the other organization members and make gift baskets for our families when they go through treatments.
