Following my recent accomplishment of earning a bachelor’s degree in political science with magna cum laude honors from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), I am now seeking an entry-level position in the political science field.

Grateful for the educational opportunities I’ve had, my academic journey equipped me with advanced skills in reading comprehension, critical thinking, and analytical reasoning, all of which are essential for a successful political science career.

While completing my undergraduate studies at UCLA, I simultaneously gained practical experience working as part of the UCLA Housing Front Desk Staff, where I honed my customer service abilities, handled administrative tasks proficiently, and improved my computer capabilities.

I am now eager to transition into the political science field and am actively seeking a full-time entry-level position as well as volunteer opportunities. My goal is to further develop my practical experience and contribute meaningfully to legislative procedures, governmental initiatives, or other politically related organizations. Thrilled to apply my academic knowledge and practical skills to contribute to significant initiatives in politics and governance, I look forward to hands-on learning opportunities collaborating alongside a dynamic and visionary team.
