Experience

Indiana 211

Customer Service Rep

During my time spent working with the Indiana 211 helpline, I witnessed firsthand, how public health works to protect the health of its community. I learned how important it is to remain flexible and how to be comfortable with change. As I am becoming an professional I will be able to take my experience in working in a fast-paced environment where regulations are always being updated and apply that to future positions.

Teenworks

Assistant Supervisor

While working at Teenworks, I managed a group of teens at a farm that provided food for a community that was considered a "food desert". As supervisor assistant, I managed the teens attendance and productivity on and off the farm. I learned how to associate an individuals work ethic to character traits that could be beneficial in future positions. This position taught me many things but most of all I learned the importance of a team working together to complete a task that was time sensitive. In my future positions I would take my experience to manage a team while exemplifying participatory leadership.

Alden Poplar Creek Rehabilitation and Nursing Facility

Receptionist

Alden Poplar Creek was a very fast-paced environment. Patients were in and out of the facility and I would assist with that process. Being reception I learned what it meant to represent an organization and how first impressions can matter. I was responsible for connecting the nurses in the facility and the doctors from the hospital. This experience taught me how to work in a environment that provides short-term rehabilitation services. I feel, from this experience, I will now take my ability to maintain interactions between myself and the patients/families into my future positions.

Westside Garden Plaza

Lead Server

During my time at Westside Garden Plaza, I was quickly promoted to lead server after displaying leadership and teamwork skills. I managed a team to ensure patients dietary needs were being met as well as kept up with what patients were permitted to/no to have. I learned that maintaining relationships with patients improved their time spent in the facility. With this experience I will take my communication skills and knowledge of patient quality of care to my future positions.
