Summary

Driven and adaptable, I excelled at Pacsun by enhancing team productivity and fostering customer relationships, demonstrating key strengths in effective communication and problem-solving. As a dedicated athlete at Dedham High School, I showcased self-motivation and leadership, achieving top 25 in the State Decathlon and being named a League All-Star in soccer. Also as an injury-prone athlete who has suffered from a fractured fibula, shin splints, and patellar tendinitis, I have exceptional prior knowledge of the procedures and etiquette in physical therapy clinics.
