Summary
In the past few years, I have become very passionate in regards to working and making a difference in my community. I worked at Market of Choice for almost a year, and before that I was a nanny for four years. The biggest transition I've had to face would be my transition from bagging items and collecting carts to becoming a CNA and having a patient's life in my hands. I take great pride in my ability to handle challenges in the workplace with grace, and I believe my dedication, punctuality, team working skills, among other things are strong assets that I possess and would like to contribute to this job. My experience has given me a wide range of abilities that I believe are very valuable not in the workplace, but in my daily life.
