Summary
As a hardworking and compassionate student with a wide range of hands-on experience—from catering and landscaping to mentoring as a camp counselor—I bring strong communication skills, a calm presence under pressure, and a dedication to providing excellent service. My education at Ridge and Valley Charter School and North Warren Regional High School helped shape a collaborative, curious, and grounded mindset. I value working with others, staying organized in fast-paced settings, and always showing up with energy and care. I'm excited to bring these strengths into a team-focused, customer-facing environment where I can continue learning and growing.
