Summary
My communication and leadership skills are well demonstrated and developed in my work experiences in public interaction situations.

While working, I practice communicating, building rapport with customers, describing situations, and connecting with a wide diverse amount of people,. I have also learned how to maintain safety and enforce rules at the Verona recreational sports, by enforcing penalties and rules intended to keep the players safe, building a connection with the coaches and players of diverse backgrounds, and being a role model for the players. I also coach football at Verona Area High School where I practice communicating responsibilities, build relationships with the community, grow young boys into men, and enforce punishment when warranted.
