Grace Harrigan

East Setauket,NY

Summary

My Name is Grace Harrigan and I am currently a sophomore at the University of New Hampshire. My major is Human Development and Family Studies with a concentration in Child Development and I am Minoring in Social Work. I am passionate about becoming and early childhood educator and taking the proper steps needed to achieve this goal.

I have been working at Target since my senior year of high school so I know how to balance a busy schedule and can manage time well. I work well in a fast paced environment and can get tasks done efficiently. With this job I have also learned the values of customer service and problem solving.

I had the opportunity to intern in an Elementary school working with a Kindergarten class and can work well with kids with keeping them on track and engaging them in a fun but focused way.
