Summary

With over ten years of solid work history, I have consistently demonstrated dedication and work ethic by maintaining multiple jobs simultaneously. Highly motivated and reliable, I approach tasks with enthusiasm and responsibility. Thriving in challenging situations, I consistently deliver results whether working independently or as part of a team. Open to exploring new career opportunities outside my current field, I am a perpetual learner eager to gain new experiences. Currently pursuing my LSW degree, with only two classes remaining before graduation. My interest in psychology adds another dimension to my skill set. In previous roles managing childcare programs, successfully led teams to provide exceptional care while ensuring compliance with regulations. Strong organizational and leadership skills allowed effective oversight of operations and creation of a safe and engaging environment for children's development. Fostering collaboration among staff members consistently achieved positive outcomes and maintained high-quality standards.
