I graduated in December 2022 with my Bachelor of Arts degree in English and will begin furthering my education in January 2024 by virtually pursuing a Master of Science degree in Information at Florida State University. This next chapter of my academic studies will prepare me for a career in librarianship with my current goal aligning with the position of school media specialist. Even at the youngest age, books and information technology are important aspects essential to learning. I surround myself with books and have previous experience that spans a little over a year in retail as a bookseller for Barnes & Noble. Sorting shelves, setting up displays, and most importantly providing personalized book recommendations to customers are different facets of sales experience I've achieved. There are stories out there for everyone.I have further enhanced my experience working within a learning environment through my position as a tutor with Huntington Learning Center. Ensuring students improve in their academic achievement is a key goal of our organization. I apply varying strategies to teach students skills in reading comprehension, vocabulary, phonics, and math to adapt to their needs.
