Summary

I am a Psychology major at Purdue University pursuing a Bachelor of Science with a concentration in Behavioral Analysis. With over six years of experience managing teams across warehouse operations, sales, and the restaurant industry, I bring strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills to every environment. Alongside my academic work, I am committed to serving my community. I volunteer weekly at a local food pantry and have supported organizations such as the Special Olympics, the National Down Syndrome Society, and Habitat for Humanity. These experiences have strengthened my dedication to helping individuals grow, feel confident, and overcome challenges. I am passionate about becoming a behavior analyst and seeking opportunities to gain hands-on experience supporting children and individuals with diverse needs. My goal is to empower others to build the skills and confidence they need to thrive
