Department Assistant of Student Life and Campus Inclusion​
​
I help manage and maintain records and forms for events related to student engagement including graduation, student programs, and club activities and membership. As someone working in a high-contact department, I use my interpersonal communication skills to visitors, students, faculty, and staff with any questions regarding campus events and services.
Program Coordinator
​
I managed and administered academic evaluations for students PK-12 and compiled their results for parent conferences. While students were in their custom programs, I would help maintain a detailed record of the student's progress in the database.
Office Manager
​
I assisted with all aspects of administrative management, directory maintenance, and logistics at the branch. I would plan and create academic program schedules based on seasonal demands while taking into consideration our teacher resources. Additionally, I would coordinate advertisements placements in local publications and high school newspapers.
English Language Conversational Tutor
​
During my time studying abroad, I was able to work with local Japanese university students to work on their English conversation skills. I would prepare intriguing discussion topics and made weekly presentations for my sessions.
