I bring value to the teams I am a part of.This past summer, I traveled to remote Tanzania with the Service Without Borders (SWB) club at Virginia Tech. Over the course of three weeks, we volunteered at a local school, rising early each morning to carry bricks for a new dormitory and dig holes for community gardens. The rest of the day was spent alongside the children, where we not only helped enhance their education and the school’s infrastructure, but also immersed ourselves in the vibrant local culture. It was a rewarding experience, leaving a lasting impact on me.After years of dedication my team and I won a national gold medal for our project on water quality testing. We used the Freshwater Quality Index to test ponds and create a database to share our results with the public and surrounding towns. My interests and curiosities span many fields, and studying at a vocational high school while majoring in environmental science taught me the importance of adaptability in preserving our resources. This understanding aligns perfectly with the skills needed to become a successful leader in business.As a great teammate I am skilled at identifying how I can best contribute to my team's success. My openness and curiosity towards new experiences drive me to continuously grow, while my knowledge and experience in business provide a solid foundation for adding value to any team.
