Summary
I am a graduating senior at Volcano Vista High School with several years of experience in fast-paced, customer-focused environments. I’ve worked at Dairy Queen, Jinja Bar & Bistro, and currently at Dutch Bros Coffee, where I’ve developed strong communication skills, a helpful and friendly attitude, and the ability to work well under pressure.
These roles have taught me how to connect with people, work as part of a team, and stay organized in busy settings. I’m passionate about helping others and am currently preparing to pursue a 4-year degree in Biochemistry, with plans to attend medical school.
I’m actively seeking opportunities where I can gain hands-on patient experience and further develop my skills in care and compassion. My goal is to grow in the healthcare field while making a positive impact on the lives of others.
