ENTHUSIASTIC COMMUNICATOR WEB DESIGNER CONTENT CREATOR TEAM PLAYER GOAL GETTER
Professional StatemenT
My commitment to effective communication begins with listening more than I speak and providing space for people to be heard. I want to empower others to grab roles of leadership and use their natural talents to step into paths they were meant to travel.
I strive to exceed expectations with each position I have held. My goal is to fully understand the job duties and learn how items assigned to me interact with my professional community. I have had the unique opportunity of building trust with coworkers by creating activities that boost morale. I thrive in environments where my loyalty, dedication, and solid work ethic are recognized, appreciated, and rewarded.
PERSONAL
Statement
I am very thankful for the times I am able to give back and share my life as a way to motivate others. My positive outlook and determination, along with patience and genuine kindness, has helped to sustain many of my friendships for decades.
Over the years, I have held varying positions of leadership. Whether it was becoming a team captain, or participation on the Executive Board of an organization, connecting with people, by listening attentively and empathetically, has guided me through difficult interactions and allowed me to regain the trust of those who may have lost their confidence in particular situations.

VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE
Growing up, my mother volunteered often and instilled in me the understanding of always doing for others. Despite what we had, there was always time to serve. I’ve been able to work with dozens of organizations, but I’ve had a special connection to the ones listed below.
One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time.
