    I am an empathetic and enthusiastic team player who enjoys aiding others in achieving their goals. I am a persevering

    observant

    and detail-oriented leader. I take initiative

    have a collaborative nature

    organization

    and problem solving in order to follow through with goals. At the moment

    I'm hoping to transition into a clinical setting before enrolling in professional school.
