Summary

I graduated with honors from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, with a degree in Community Engagement & Education. My passion lies in creating inclusive and supportive environments for: children, young adults, and any underrepresented groups.

I am fluent in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese. I have experience working in multilingual environments and facilitating effective cross-cultural communication. I spent two years as an English tutor, working one-on-one with students aged five to fifteen. I also worked part time as a conference and personal interpreter.

After earning my associate's degree in Business in 2019, I pursued language studies at the Dante Language Institute in Rome, Italy, spending ten months learning Italian language. I passed the B1 level Italian language test hosted by Sapienza Università di Roma.

I am empathetic, uphold high moral standards, and can relate well to people of different ages and backgrounds. I am also a fast learner, active listener, and dedicated team player. I am goal-oriented and find fulfillment in completing tasks efficiently.
