CanadaWhat I'm looking for
Hello! I'm Emilyn, a dynamic and enthusiastic individual with a passion for learning and a dedication to excellence. As a 31-year-old single mom, I bring a unique perspective and a wealth of experience to the table. With a background in administration, customer service, executive assistance, and hospitality, I've honed versatile skills that I'm eager to apply in new and exciting ways. Recently graduating from Algonquin College's BME program, I've proven my ability to thrive in challenging environments while balancing the responsibilities of parenthood. During my time at college, I excelled in competitions, securing 1st place in the Riipen cross-collegiate competition and 2nd place in the Business Plan competition. I take great pride in leading my Riipen team to victory, where we developed a winning marketing strategy alongside a fully edited video, in just 72 hours. Prior to my academic pursuits, I gained valuable experience in the hospitality industry and freelanced as a designer, fuelling my passion for the arts. I thrive in roles that allow me to make creative decisions, no matter how small, and I'm eager to bring my innovative spirit to your team.
