Summary
Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.
My experience working with children has helped me develop an outlook of empathy and the ability to understand the perspectives of the children I worked with. This allowed me to help them grow and meet their academic, social and emotional potential. My years working with children have helped to shape me and how I interact with the world and the impact I want to leave on the people and places around me.
Since leaving my last position as a Preschool Teacher I have been volunteering and taking Bible courses. This has been a time of personal development for me. At this time I feel I am ready to step back into the workforce to help and serve others.
