Throughout the past couple of years I have gained a sort of perspective of what life is about (I think). So far through the embarrassment and anxiety I can say that helping people and the world around us has surpassed those less than fun feelings. While I enjoy structure and certainty within my environment I understand not everything is in my control. Furthermore I am a junior at Park City High School, where I work hard and enjoy trying new things.
Work Experience
I am currently working at Maker Union as both an internship and assistant supervisor. One of my previous jobs was Fulfilled lifestyle where I got the opportunity to work in retail. I also worked at the Park City Day School as an assistant summer camp counselor, where I worked with kids and got to experience how fun and rewarding it really is.
Athletics
The Park City High School Volleyball has been a highlight of my high school experience and lucky to be a part of the team.
Maker Union is a non-profit organization that creates employment opportunities for adults with disabilities. Our workers are able to get real work experience as well as learn how to be the best employee for future jobs. Other than that Marker Union is a place where adults can build friendships and community, a place where mistakes are celebrated and growth is the main goal. My place in this outstanding organization is supervising employees making sure that everyone is on task and is being safe. Throughout my time working here I have learned how important teamwork and kindness are within a workplace and just how much one simple action can change everything.
Fulfilled lifestyle is a sustainable and non-toxic company that takes your everyday body and house essentials, making them better for you and the environment. “We like our products like we like our friends, non toxic,” is a mantra within our company. Our mission is to create a space where people feel comfortable and welcomed into trying a more sustainable world. As a retail worker I am there to introduce people to our purpose and products as well as answer any questions and help when needed. Helping people open their minds to a healthier lifestyle has been incredibly rewarding and being able to learn about sustainability and its importance has changed the way I live my life.
