What I'm looking for

I seek entry-level roles in education or healthcare that offer mentorship, hands-on experience, and opportunities to develop teaching, patient support, and administrative skills in a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

I am a rising sophomore pursuing a B.S. in Elementary Education at Old Dominion University with a minor in Fashion Merchandising and a concentration in French. I bring hands-on volunteer experience in hospital and community settings, CPR certification, and customer-facing receptionist experience, complemented by strong time management and communication skills.

I have supported patient care and donor services through volunteering at hospitals and the American Red Cross, worked as a desk receptionist at a university information desk, and participate in multiple student organizations that develop leadership, mentoring, and outreach abilities. I am diligent, adaptable, and committed to learning and contributing positively to educational and healthcare environments.
