Summary

Dedicated and Driven Professional

I take pride in being a committed and adaptable employee, always giving my best in every role I take on. My journey has been one of perseverance—balancing work, motherhood, and education to create a better future for my daughter and myself. As a single mother, I worked tirelessly to build a stable home, advance my career, and pursue higher education to provide the best possible life for her.

I am currently completing my Associate’s Degree and have been accepted into New Mexico State University to continue my studies, with the long-term goal of working in child protective services and eventually becoming a psychiatrist for adolescents. My passion lies in advocating for and supporting those in need, and I bring that same dedication and work ethic to everything I do.

I would welcome the opportunity to contribute my commitment, adaptability, and determination to your team.
