Taylor Gunnin

I worked as a paddleboard instructor, teaching both beginners and experienced paddlers the skills they need to navigate the water confidently. During the summer, I also worked at Urban Kai's summer camp. My responsibilities extended beyond typical camp duties, including handling kayaks and paddleboards, lifting and organizing equipment, working the front register, and maintaining inventory. This role required physical strength and attention to detail, ensuring smooth operations and an excellent experience for everyone.

I worked with MMTC patients, as well as those receiving IV treatments and spa services, assisting with triage and ensuring personalized care. I also filed medical paperwork and maintained a clean, organized environment. My responsibilities included managing the stock of medical supplies and working closely with both IV and spa patients to provide a smooth and comfortable experience. This role required attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to handle sensitive medical information efficiently to support patient care and facility operations.

At Sweetgreen, I greeted customers with a friendly attitude and ensured they had a welcoming experience. I prepared salads, managed online orders, and prepped fresh ingredients to keep operations running smoothly. I was also responsible for maintaining a clean and organized workspace, and my dedication to the role earned me Employee of the Month. This experience sharpened my multitasking skills and attention to detail in a fast-paced environment.

• This job was a promotion from Junior Counselor at Tampa Prep.
• I monitored the safety of campers in and around the swimming pool, ensuring a secure environment. I closely observed weather and water conditions, alerting visitors to potential dangers like storm. Focusing on swimmer safety, I attentively watched for signs of distress. To provide optimal support in emergencies, I learned and maintained proficiency in first responder skills such as First Aid and CPR. Additionally, I assisted with snack time, dance activities, and helped with drop-off and pick-up, contributing to the overall daily camp operations.
