Summary
I am a graduate of the College of Charleston with a BA in Secondary Education and History. During my time here at The College, I have made tremendous strides to further my education in forms of internships, modeled events, and organizational involvement. These roles are, but not limited to, a Congressional Internship in Washington DC, being a Student Teacher at James Island Charter High School, being a representative to the International Model African Union in Washington DC, being a two-term Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity President, and a member of countless other on-campus organizations. Therefore I am an organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. I also have a willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet high goals.
