What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and allows me to apply my skills in a supportive environment.

My name is Jayona Fortune, and I am currently pursuing a degree in Psychology at the University at Birmingham. I am seeking an entry-level position that allows me to begin my career in a high-level professional environment. My goal is to secure employment with a reputable company where I can effectively utilize my skills and background in business studies.

In my recent role as an Instructional Aide at Birmingham City Schools, I have honed my abilities in classroom management, lesson preparation, and student instruction. I am dedicated to creating a safe and positive learning environment while assessing student progress and maintaining effective communication with students, parents, and colleagues. My previous experiences in customer service roles at Winn-Dixie and Zaxby’s have further developed my skills in communication, problem-solving, and teamwork, making me a well-rounded candidate for any entry-level position.
