• Since a young age, I have always gravitated towards other young children.
• Their smiles in the grocery line, playing peekaboo through the windows, and showing them their deserved appreciation.
• Grew passion for childcare while participating in best buddy program in middle school.
• There was a few students who I became very close to and later became their babysitter after school.
• Became full-time nanny for family of four and single mother during college.
• Nanny for this family and several others, providing consistent care and support.
• These experiences teach me patients, gratitude, and a sense of living each and every day.

• The best buddies program was introduced to me in elementary school when I took an interest in aiding children on the spectrum.
• This experience has lasted me up to now and hopefully for the rest of my future.
• I became the president of multiple programs through my constant moving and finally created my own, under the VADC best buddy program.
• This experience was the first time I was the main contributor to planning, hosting, and providing for students, family, and friends.
• I expanded my ability to multitask and balance life, school, and hobbies whilst enjoying the most intelligent and passionate children.
• I forever hope to continue this path and later in my nursing career.

My short time being a Behavioral tech was one of the greatest oppurtinies, and I hope to continue the job again. I fortunally began studying abroad causing me to end my time at Acorn Health. This job provided me wqith direct client care ewhile focusing on behavioral observing and positive reinforcment. This was a team led job that endured dedication and kidness everyday.

• Implemented individualized treatment plans for clients with behavioral challenges.
• Collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to ensure comprehensive care for clients.
• Monitored client progress and documented behavioral changes in daily reports.
• Assisted clients in developing social skills through structured activities and interventions.
• Facilitated group sessions to encourage peer interaction and communication skills.
• Utilized data collection methods to assess client behavior patterns consistently.
• Observed client interactions with peers and provided feedback as needed.

• This job has surpassed my expectations of the capacity to learn from a fast food company.
• Working here has allowed me to be a mentor, educator, and provided me a space to grow as a person throughout my college years.
• These company standards have kept me disciplined whilst being a student and slowly getting promotions.
• As of 2024 I became the youngest manager Five Guys has ever hired.
• This came with responsibility to maintain; professionalism, the hiring of new employees, teaching of said employees, communication with other businesses and lastly the ability to balance a comfortable and smooth run restaurant.
