• As an owner and operations manager, I gained invaluable experience in all areas of business operations. • Ongoing practical communication to clients and team members allowed me to be successful in developing and refining my interpersonal skills.• The work ethic demanded in such a mentally and physically stressful situation has given me the ability to face new challenges with unwavering confidence.

• As a Team Captain and youth mentor, I logged +1000 hours of service in educating youth about tough issues through drama, dance and music.• The performance based platform allowed me to experiment with different communicative styles in front of thousands of judges and peers. Through this experimentation, I learned what types of communication are most effective in sensitive situations, and the value of proper presentation.• The Positive Choices Leadership Program directly contributed to my proficiency in team-building and trust activities. Much of my success can be attributed to the positive attitude fostered by this program.
