For the last eight years, I’ve worked in a paralegal capacity where I’ve simultaneously managed legal caseloads, projects, and timelines to ensure maximum efficiency and support for my clients and attorneys. I currently manage records, planning, construction, and legal projects for a parks department. My legal experience has allowed me to develop excellent organizational and time-management skills, the ability to work in a stressful, deadline-driven environment, and the understanding and patience to work with people from all walks of life. During my early work history in customer service, I perfected a wide range of essential skills such as the ability to communicate clearly and concisely, adaptability, professionalism, and the ability to listen effectively and actively. For the past three years, I have also fulfilled a project and planning coordination role, that required me to independently keep department-wide projects moving forward, track project deadlines, ensure project file completeness, and other similar tasks. Outside of my experience, I also have a thirst for knowledge and commitment to education. I graduated from Ivy Tech Community College with an Associates Degree in Paralegal Studies. My education continues at Indiana University East where I am pursuing a Bachelors of Science in Psychology with a minor in Political Science. Balancing a full-time career while attending school has taught me valuable skills like prioritization, agility, and ingenuity.
