Summary
I work on campus as a Messina Office Assistant, handling office checks, assisting visitors, and managing Excel spreadsheets. As the founder of a project supporting Maison Shalom, I successfully led events and fundraisers, raising over $5,000. I plan on bringing this project and team to my university next year. Additionally, as part of the Foreign Policy Youth Collaborative, I wrote op-eds, managed social media content, and demonstrated effective teamwork. At Summer House Bethesda and Hello Betty, I excelled in customer service, sales, and maintaining safety standards.
