Summary

I am a diligent, driven, and dynamic individual who manages any task with maturity and responsibility. I am a very passionate educator, who wants to change the world one child at a time. I function effectively by myself and alongside with others, collaboration is more effective than individuality. I am also skilled in communication, mathematical skills, Microsoft Office, managing time, and paying close attention to details. I am exceptionally adept at meeting due dates and surpassing expectations. I also have a solid background in IT, having worked with Delphi, Python, MySQL, and Microsoft Office. As a method to pursue a career in the IT field, I worked on a few projects as a software tester.
