Summary
I am passionate about the community college mission and want to support your students as an Instructional Assistant. With an AA degree in Arts & Humanities and hands-on experience in classrooms, libraries, and HR, I bring a unique edge to the role. My time as a library techician taught me how to guide students through research and learning resources, while my background as an HR clerk gives me the organizational skills needed to manage classroom paperwork with total confidentiality.
