New Orleans
Summary
Responsible and hardworking high school student with experience babysitting and volunteering at local community events, including activities at City Park and SOUL Tree Planting initiatives. Through these experiences, I have developed strong communication, teamwork, organization, and problem-solving skills while working with children, families, and diverse groups of people. Babysitting has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe and positive environment, while volunteering has strengthened my ability to work well with others and support my community. I am passionate about books, learning, and helping people, and I would bring a positive attitude, reliability, and strong customer service skills to a bookstore position.
