Jabril McKeithen

In the different departments I have worked in I can fully say becoming a server has sharpened my ability as a worker overall. Being able to interact with many distinct roles whether it’s being the leader of a shift or just and helping all around. My previous jobs have been able to enhance me as a person and has made me be ready for any of the challenges thrown my way into a new role. If accepted I would love to absorb any and all knowledge from mentors and peers within the facility.

08/02/18, Louise Senior, Morven Museum & Garden, 55 Stockton Street, Princeton, NJ, 08540, 609-240-6543, Lsenior@morven.org, I heartily recommend Jabril McKeithen for employment. He worked under my direction at Morven Museum and Gardens in Princeton during the five-week Isles summer internship program (July 2 - August 2, 2018). The students from the Isles YouthBuild Program in Trenton worked at Morven tackling landscape tasks such as clearing, edging, mulching, and planting, as well as other general chores. In addition to learning basic landscaping skills through hands-on experience, the group participated in activities intended to increase environmental awareness. A secondary focus of the program was teaching responsible behavior in a professional setting, and exposing all interns to new places and opportunities. Jabril is a physically strong, hard worker with a robust sense of self-esteem who is eagerly looking forward to furthering his education at university. Though he had never before worked on gardening tasks, and most aspects were entirely new to him, he eagerly pitched in on heavy duties even on the hottest of days. He listened carefully to instructions and to our guest speakers, asking questions that demonstrated his intellect and curiosity. Despite his quiet, serious demeanor, Jabril has an amiable personality, ready smile, and is at ease with public speaking. He willingly helps others without being asked, and I believe this thoughtful young man has high leadership potential. It is a pleasure for me to recommend Jabril McKeithen as an employee.

(This is just something one of my POC , point of contact, had to say about me in a review after an event.)

"A special thank you to Jabril who greeted us with kindness and warmth and was so sweet with the kids. He was able to fulfill all of our needs such as getting an extra table for the presents and cupcakes I brought, bringing extra plates/napkins, etc. We could tell he enjoys his role and really wanted everyone to have a great time. Please treat him well as employees like him are rare these days! Thank you again for making our party a stress free event where we as the hosting parents could also enjoy time with our children and friends, we really appreciate it."
