Summary

Worked as a summer camp counselor at Adventure Unlimited, a high adventure stay over camp located in Buena Vista, Colorado. I worked sessions with campers ages 6-18, teaching horsemanship and working as kitchen cleaning staff. I listened to the campers and encouraged them to give them a better experience as well as meet their needs. At meal time, three times a day, for the entire summer, I worked in the kitchen as a dishwasher and cleaning staff for the large dining hall. I volunteered often and picked up extra assignments and duties, including being flexible when asked to work primitive pack trips in the wilderness. My supervisors found me to be reliable, agreeable, and hardworking.
