- Certified CNA, FL Department of Health-present
worked as a camp counselor for two summers.
I worked at a local summer camp after graduation. I worked with children ages 5-7 year olds. Working at the summer camp was so much fun, and fulfilling for me. I felt like I made a positive impact in the children's lives. We played games, went on field trips, read stories, and put together a talent show at the end of summer. I have realized that I want to further my career in child development. I have always liked helping others, that is why I have worked so long as a CNA. Now, I am looking forward to furthering my education and reaching my goals in Child development.
