Summary

I take pride in my work and what I do in any position. I love what I do, no matter what and I always come into a job with a smile on my face and ready to take on whats expected of me. Working as a substitute teacher with Kelly Education allows me to make learning fun for students and treat them with the kindness and patience they deserve. My work in volunteering taught me leadership skills and made me more confident in taking charge and directing people in what they need to do. I am also able to clearly communication the tasks needing to be done and helping colleagues with those tasks. Being a poll worker allowed me to aid others voting for the first time and make their experience good.
