About

Throughout my career, I've prepped and primed my skills as a leader and an innovator within my field of study. My primary focus when it comes to work rests upon teamwork; your job is only as successful as the attitude you give to those around you. I have five keys to success that I keep in mind: Hard work-more than what most will do. Discipline-having self control. Integrity-being honest will all. Social skills-getting along with others and having patience. Having a supportive group/network.

My primary objective as a library assistant was creating and facilitate programs and activities for patrons between the ages of 13 - 17.
