Summary

With 10 years of experience in competitive dance, I have developed a strong work ethic, discipline, and a deep appreciation for teamwork. My role as an after-school and camp counselor further strengthened my leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills while working with children in dynamic, fast-paced environments. Passionate about creativity and self-expression, I am eager to transition into the fashion industry, where I can apply my background in the arts. Known for my dedication and innovative mindset, I am committed to bringing these skills into future opportunities.
