The most fulfilling goal of mine is to help those around me in every way that I can and to leave a lasting positive impact, whether it's through a smile that brightens someone's day or an 80 hour project for my Girl Scout Troop. I hope this resume leaves a positive impact on you, and I can't wait to hear back!
