Summary

I recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from Pace University with a Bachelor's in Business Economics and I am looking for a full-time opportunity within a reputable company.

More about me:
• Inefficiency is my biggest pet peeve
• My coworkers view me as ambitious and reliable
• I'm best at spotting problems and creating solutions

Environmental issues are also important to me. I've collected over 900 articles of clothing within 3 weeks to ensure they would be recycled. I've also used my marketing skills to represent bobble® filtered water bottles.

I'm an individual that strives in challenging, fast paced atmospheres where progress can be visualized and accomplished. Ultimately, I believe my work ethic, professional experiences, and academic background make me a valuable asset to any company.
