Summary

As a former soldier, I strive to set an example for those around me. I have spent time both being led and being a leader; therefore, I am cooperative with and supportive of those around me, pushing for the same goal. I am also a student, and I love learning about various different processes. I attended SWIC Community College, where I was recommended by my professors of Biology and Chemistry to become a student tutor in the Success Center, helping other students pass the classes in which I performed well. Now it is my goal to get experience in the workplace with people in the industry as I continue to finish the rest of my Bachelor's Degree in ACS Biochemistry.
