Summary

I have a diverse background in customer service and healthcare support, with experience as a pharmacy technician, Target cashier, Starbucks barista, and babysitter. As a pharmacy technician, I assisted with filling prescriptions, maintained accurate patient records, and provided support to pharmacists in a fast-paced environment. At Target, I honed my communication and multitasking skills while efficiently handling transactions and helping customers. My time at Starbucks strengthened my ability to work under pressure, manage custom orders, and provide a welcoming experience to guests. Additionally, through babysitting, I developed strong responsibility, time management, and problem-solving skills while caring for children of various ages. These roles have equipped me with a strong work ethic, adaptability, and a genuine commitment to helping others.
