What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers opportunities for growth.

I am an energetic and eager individual with a strong ability to adapt to various environments. My experience as a Library Assistant at Westwood International School allowed me to assist students effectively, particularly those with limited English proficiency. I take pride in my excellent interpersonal skills and my proven track record in customer service, leadership, and teamwork.

In addition to my role at the school, I have also worked as an on-call babysitter, providing childcare services and engaging children in educational activities. My volunteer experience as a Social Impact Coordinator for Girls For Girls (G4G) Botswana has further honed my organizational and communication skills, as I coordinated social impact projects and facilitated events for mentee alumni. I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences, which complements my practical experiences and enhances my understanding of societal dynamics.
