Summary
Passionate, hardworking, detail-oriented team player with strong organizational skills. Ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy. I use my creative side a lot. I explored a lot of arenas in my career. My hard skills in combination with learned soft skills unlocked many doors to success for me.
When working as an educator I organized school events like ceremonies and exhibition projects. I also discovered myself to be an orator while organizing assemblies at school. My first passion is and would always be life sciences. I worked as a Medical Transcriptionist for a very short period but enjoyed it. I like Nature photography, especially capturing sunsets and sunrise. My favorite quote,
“Creativity is a wild mind and a disciplined eye.” Currently, I am exploring and transitioning to a different career path. Experience
