What I'm looking for
I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Lindsey Wilson College, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. My academic journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence, as evidenced by my recognition as the most outstanding student in my program. I have a strong foundation in biological sciences and a passion for helping others succeed academically.
Throughout my time at Lindsey Wilson College, I have taken on various leadership roles, including serving as a General Chemistry Supplementary Instruction Leader and a Peer Mentor. In these positions, I developed effective study strategies tailored to students' academic goals and facilitated collaborative discussions to enhance peer learning. My experience as a Graduate Admission Specialist allowed me to streamline the admissions process, contributing to a significant increase in cohort enrollment.
I am particularly proud of my role as a Career Fair Coordinator, where I successfully connected nursing students with potential employers, achieving an impressive turnout. My dedication to fostering a supportive learning environment and my ability to communicate effectively have been key to my success in mentoring and guiding students.
