Summary

Hello, I am looking for a part time for mostly weekday evenings and weekend mornings. I work great with everyone and I am able to adjust to whatever situation that may come my way. I am studying art and marketing at school so I am great at design and organization. I am able to take charge a situation and act independently while still respecting and not micromanaging or ignoring members of my team. I hope to talk to every job opportunity in person so please give me a call or email! I appreciate you taking time to read over my resume and application.
