I have developed communication and organization skills through my work at the Chicago Botanic Garden (CBG) and Libertyville Bank and Trust. I enjoy working with people as I was previously a receptionist at the bank and now a teacher's aide at the garden. My current time at CBG has enriched me with new experiences and insights that have motivated me to further pursue a study in the field of Education. From working with preschoolers to working with teens, I have a continuous desire of helping those around me. This desire goes beyond the workplace as I volunteer around my community, spend time with loved ones, and am part of various clubs within my school community. Overall, my goal is to support children to excel in and out of the classroom every single day, through the use of my work experience and my internal motivations.
