Currently, I'm seeking entry-level opportunities to enhance my abilities while contributing to the company's growth. I'm a hardworking employee with customer service, multitasking, and time management abilities.

From all of these previous experiences, I'm devoted to leveraging my critical thinking and leadership qualities further to drive team success and contribute to organizational growth, and to begin successful opportunities in the business field with my social work degree.
