Summary
As a conscientious former camp counselor, life guard, student, and dental assistant with background promoting program success in fast-paced, detail oriented settings, I maintained discipline and safety while delivering fun and engaging experience for participants. I am enthusiastic and eager to contribute to team success through hard work, attention to detail, and excellent organizational skills. I have a clear understanding of goals, requirements, and training in conflict resolution. After being a full time student for three years, I am motivated to learn, grow and excel in the Hospitality Industry before returning to my education. With these skills and a natural sense of hardworking determination, I approach each day and unique challenges with enthusiasm, patience, and humor.
