Education and professional development are important tools for every job seeker, and I want to help foster those skills and knowledge.As the director of Career Services, I got the opportunity to help students put together a stellar resume, prepare them for the interview process, as well as help those who do not know which major to choose with a variety of assessments. Moving into working as the coordinator of the sim center at KUMC, I'm still assisting in the career development of learners in the medical field to get hands-on experiences that will undoubtedly benefit them.I work hard to guide and develop individuals as deftly as possible. Having the right tools, developing the proper skills, and working with coaches, trainers, and mentors can make all the difference in helping individuals find that dream role.I try to be an example to those that I work with. Like many of them, I was first generation , a transfer student, an adult learner, and hoping to gain as much knowledge as possible. I have also learned from every role I have held and have learned a great deal from the different organizations I have had the pleasure of being a part of over the last several years. Personal growth and non-stop learning is critical for continuing to be an asset in the workforce and I strive to help our future leaders understand that and develop themselves.
