Summary

As a student in higher education who is passionately dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, I have spent the last 4 years carefully honing my professional and personal skills. Through my time at Black Propeller, I was able to learn extensively about data analysis and research gathering. During my educational pursuit, I continue to build exceptional organizational skills, time management, and effective communication. Furthermore, my time as a tutor has taught me the importance of collaboration and adding to a healthy workplace environment that fosters growth and education. Before I entered college, I spent 10 years preparing for a professional career in ballet at the most intense and competitive level. Although personal injury put a stop to that career path, ballet cultivated me into the dedicated, hard-working, and persistent person I am today.
