water samples. Large amounts of data entry and spreadsheet generation, I finished the my senior

registrars office such as monitoring the telephone, registering students for classes, faxing documents,

guiding students/general population to the correct buildings and any other tasks needed to help the

flow of the registrars office at N.M Tech. A lot of multitasking and very busy which taught me to be a

team player. I could also manage the office alone during slow times. This was a temporary position in

which I was hired on during the busy registration time and graduation. I helped get the college ready

for graduation ceremony which included making the actual degrees with a template.
