Summary
Some hands-on involvement in helping students overcome academic obstacles and fostering a positive peer environment has given me a wealth of knowledge in peer mentoring and collaborative working. My excellent interpersonal skills include effective dispute resolution and a strong sense of intercultural humility, which enable me to navigate a wide range of environments effectively and empathetically. In addition, my ability to work well under pressure, organize my schedule well, and actively seek out continuing education and career development makes me an important resource in promoting growth and achieving positive results in a variety of situations. As a peer mentor, I am skilled at building long-lasting connections motivating others to pursue their goals and dreams.
