Summary
I am one class away from receiving a Bachelors degree from Ave Maria University in Florida. I will
receive a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy at the end of July 2012. My degree has enhanced in me the
capabilities of being a clear and critical thinker, as well as having the ability to analyze a problem
quickly and reach a solution.
As a person I have a great sense of humor and I am very spiritual. I am a creative individual, highly
logical and very sharp, and I have the capacity to approach all issues as opportunities to improve
myself by viewing them from different angles and mindsets.
My abilities extend to the areas of customer service, managing Microsoft and Macintosh programs,
excellence at speaking on the telephone, first-rate organizational skills, fluency in oral and written
English and Spanish, and a great proficiency in French. I also have the ability to work effectively in a
team with people at all levels including: staff, consultants, volunteers, and the general public. Lastly, I
have a great eye for beauty as well as logistics. I learned this about myself while planning the annual
international ball at my school for three years in a row.
Being fully aware that my degree has not taught me practical knowledge of the technicalities of the
world, I am willing to immerse myself into whatever education is necessary for the progress of both me
and the company. I learn fast and I want to learn whatever I need in order to help promote the mission
of the company.
Finally, having studied at a Catholic institution which enshrines the values of solidarity, truth, justice,
respect, and the promotion of social justice, I feel that I am equipped with strong ethical groundings,
allowing me to thrive in whatever environment I am placed in. By investing in me, you are investing in
someone who has respect for opportunity and a hunger for success.
