SUMMARY
I am a self-motivated worker, have much experience in the IT world, and am a life-long student of history and religious studies. I have a B.A. in the former discipline, and completed my Master’s degree in the latter field at Naropa University in 2018. My professional background is predominantly in education and technology. I have solid interpersonal skills and am a creative thinker who enjoys problem-solving. Along with a strong academic record, teaching and IT experience, I have spent time studying abroad, in addition to working with children and the developmentally disabled. I am hard working, patient, detail-oriented, and eager to make a meaningful impact in any environment.
