Premier Hair Lounge
This job taught me how to schedule appointments, speak on the phone and in person with customers, keep the salon clean and neat, and be organized and communicate with the other receptionists. Working as a receptionist for two years while also going to school, playing soccer, and being involved in musical activities taught me the importance of time management and having an organized schedule. I also gained lots of confidence in my communication skills both with my co-workers and with customers.

Tawasentha Parks and Recreation
My main responsibilities at this summer camp were working with kids, helping dance in biweekly camp shows, speaking with parents, and checking kids in and out of camp. This was my first year at this camp and I learned a lot about teamwork, and putting effort into my job outside of work.
Camp Counselor Work Experience or Internship
Tawasentha Parks and Recreation
This job is at the same summer camp as previously stated, but I was promoted. My main responsibilities after being promoted were working with kids, planning music, dances, and props for biweekly camp shows, speaking with parents, checking kids in and out of camp, and teaching entertainment directors and kids the dances for the shows. Being director was much harder than just being a counselor. I had put a lot more time into the job and work independently a lot of the time, but I also had to work with others to teach everyone at the camp the dances and music I put together. I had to have very good communication skills for this job in order to have others listen to me, but also respect me.
