Work History

Head Swim Coach

Montclair Golf Club
  • I coordinate swim meets and manage event logistics effectively.
  • I mentor assistant coaches to enhance team performance and skills.
  • I always implement safety protocols to ensure a secure training environment for all.
  • I love to organize team-building activities to foster camaraderie and motivation.

Most Valuable Lifeguard (MVL) of the Summer

Montclair Golf Club Pool
  • I demonstrate leadership in this role because of my responsibility and work ethic in my position.
  • When my boss is not around and I am tasked with cleaning up or putting up a sufficient number of guards around the pool, I always choose what is right for the situation.
  • As a result, my coworkers follow and things work smoothly.
  • I also contribute year in and year out to a whole summer without any major injuries or accidents with members, which is directly linked with my prevention skills and ability to work well in a team.
  • This speaks to my character and leadership within my community, as I believe in helping others and preventing others from harm, so being a lifeguard has helped me tremendously in living up to this.

Car Wash Worker and Tutor

National Honors Society
  • Being in the National Honors Society provides me with an abundance of service activities.
  • Being a car wash worker has given me a chance to connect with people in the society, raise money for Toni's kitchen, and give back to people in my community through car washing.
  • Tutoring has helped me to find familiar faces within my high school and middle school, help people who may need some extra time with work, and given me an outlet to give back with any extra time I have.

Model and Supervisor for Laning Elementary School Kids

Verona China Night
Verona
  • Company Overview: This organization serves the community because it helps embrace our different town cultures and give Verona people an authentic Chinese New Year experience and fun night at VHS.
  • I assisted this organization in a meaningful manner by keeping the little kids from getting out of control during the event and taking them to get water and to the bathroom when needed.
  • I also helped them practice their performance and kept them from getting nervous about it.
  • When modeling, I assisted in embracing authentic Chinese fashion and culture.
  • From my participation, I learned about authentic hair, makeup, and fashion of women in China.
  • This organization serves the community because it helps embrace our different town cultures and give Verona people an authentic Chinese New Year experience and fun night at VHS.

Volunteer Coaching

Verona Youth Lacrosse
Verona
  • Company Overview: This organization serves the community because it provides opportunities for young kids to learn valuable skills like teamwork, sportsmanship, and discipline.
  • I assist in this organization in a meaningful manner by helping create drills for the girls that will improve their skills, allow them to have fun, and keep them focused on the common goal of team-play.
  • I additionally provide a safe space for talking to the girls about high school, answering any questions they may have, and being a consistently friendly face when they come to practice or to see when around town.
  • I loved being able to answer questions and make them feel comfortable in the lacrosse environment, as well as finding an outlet outside of school to foster my own learning, gaining insight on how to be patient when children are learning.
  • This organization serves the community because it provides opportunities for young kids to learn valuable skills like teamwork, sportsmanship, and discipline.

Volunteer Worker

Holy Spirit Episcopal Church
Verona
  • I participate in this activity in a meaningful manner by using free time to give back to those in need and less fortunate than myself most Saturdays throughout the year.
  • I volunteer my time to bring food and serve food to homeless, as well as donate toiletries and goods to them.
  • This activity speaks to my character, as it exemplifies my empathy through an act that benefits those in need.
  • I like to help in any way I can, regardless of who someone is or what their situation is.
  • I want to give back to my community and those living in the area who are in need of a meal or basic human resources.
  • Throughout my experience, I have met and connected with other kids my age, and even younger.
  • In doing this, I have learned how to teach newer volunteers how the system works and how to best go about bagging and giving goods for those in need.

Starter of club & President

Future Medical Leaders Club
  • I demonstrate leadership in this role not just by being a president, but by being the person taking initiative in getting permission to remodel the club and by being open to feedback from my peers about what we could do for future events and how to implement them moving forward.
  • Not only are we taking feedback, but also giving it to those who are interested in leading the club in the future in order for it to work smoothly in years to come after I graduate for the benefit of those coming in.
  • I additionally demonstrate leadership in this area because this club essentially fell off a couple years back, so I started it back up with another one of my peers to give other students that are interested in going into the medical field a chance to participate in a club that focuses on the area.
  • It is also beneficial to give others who might not have much medical experience opportunities to try something new and helpful.
