"I pursued a Bachelor's degree in Accounting at UCLA and upon graduation I worked as an Accounting Intern. As an intern, I learned quite a bit about professionalism, confidentiality, working with a team, and working carefully and efficiently. I took it upon myself to take the initiative on extra tasks and always made myself available to help out with projects. I am easy to get along with and take direction and feedback very well. I am ready to take the next step in my career and continue to learn from your team. In my personal life, I am involved with an animal shelter in the community, and I currently have a foster dog. I love being outdoors and exploring with friends."
