What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment where I can grow and apply my engineering skills.

As a passionate and determined undergraduate student in Chemical Engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology, I am eager to apply my knowledge and skills in a full-time summer internship. With a strong academic background, including a GPA of 4.3 from Niles North High School, I have developed a solid foundation in engineering principles and practices.

My experience as a Pharmacy Technician at Walgreens has honed my abilities in chemical analysis, problem-solving, and technical communication. I am adept at accurately measuring and preparing medications while ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Additionally, my role as an Election Coordinator has strengthened my organizational and leadership skills, allowing me to effectively manage teams and coordinate complex activities.
