Summary

My time in customer service has allowed me to acquire strong communication and interpersonal skills in high-traffic, customer-facing environment. I’ve managed diverse interactions and ensuring positive guest experiences.

My time in the classroom has helped me develop the ability to be personable and organized with passion for early childhood education and fostering a nurturing environment. I’ve also acquired knowledge of curriculum development and classroom management, coupled with strong planning and communication skills.

With the experience of both fields, I feel ready to transition into a new area of development, leveraging these transferable skills to better serve God and His kingdom while impacting and equipping the next generation.
