As a child growing up, I have been a pretty busy child. I worked at my mom's boutique everyday when I got back from school, and on week-ends. During that period (2012-2017), I carried merchandise into the store, put price tags on them and hung them or put them on shelves. In 2018, I also worked at my uncle's car wash from 8am-10pm. All this work taught me to be very handy when it comes to working with a group of people and interacting with many people in order to help them be better than they already are.
I understand the value of effective communication, I am very perseverant when it comes to work, I am a very flexible worker, a very honest person, and I am always eager to learn more to become a better worker and person
