My empathy and desire to connect with others has driven me to advocate for people. My history in administrative work and client service has helped me garner skills needed to connect with people from many different backgrounds. A concept I have learned from my work experience that will help me in the film production industry is that good communication is always key.

The most important skill for any industry is the ability to communicate affectively. Developing top-notch skills in oral and written communication not only requires active listening and analytical problem-solving but also requires empathy and the desire to understand different viewpoints.

Film, television and literature that have the ability to effectively communicate narratives can leave an impact on viewers, making them feel understood and inspired. I plan to use the skills and discipline i have developed in client service to help me further my creativity and passion to develop stories and narratives.
