ObjectiveI am college student who has the natural ability of a leader that learned to build rapport with my listening and communication skills. I am a high-energy, confident professional with an infectious enthusiasm for seeing others succeed. The Resident Assistant position has improved my decision-making, adaptability, and time management skills. While, working as a Porter taught me how to always work hard, be professional and stay active.
