Summary

During my experiences, I have developed strong communication and leadership skills through a two-year internship in a kindergarten classroom and by teaching dance to children ages two through twelve. In addition, I currently serve as the Director of New Member Education for my sorority, Alpha Delta Pi, a role that has strengthened my organizational abilities, leadership, and mentoring skills while teaching me valuable lessons about teamwork and responsibility. These experiences have not only deepened my passion for working with children but have also prepared me to create positive, engaging, and supportive learning environments where students can thrive both academically and personally.

  • During my summer break from high school, I worked independently at Miss Molly’s Boutique three to four times a week as the sole employee on duty. In this role, I developed strong time management skills and a high level of independence while handling all aspects of daily operations. My responsibilities included opening and closing the store, greeting and assisting customers, processing sales transactions, maintaining a clean and organized environment, and managing overall store operations.
