Currently I am a student at CSU Monterey Bay as well as an employee at Santa Teresa Community Hospital in San Jose, CA. I have been at CSUMB for four years now, and am a Human Communications Major. At work I am an Administrative Assistant in the Credentials Department. Although I work at a hospital, I do not want to go into the medical field at all, but I'm not sure what I do want to go into. I have a very outgoing personality which allows me to work well in any situation that I am placed in, and I enjoy going out and having a good time with my friends.
Because of what my past jobs have been, I have aquired many very important skills that are useful in everyday life. You can read about these along with what my past jobs have been under the following few links.

My outgoing personality allows me to communicate well with others both in the office as well as in a social setting. My open mindedness gives me the strength and ability to understand others perspectives an to not be judgmental in serious matters. I am well rounded and have over come obstacles that have been placed in my path. I feel I have a good head on my shoulders and I go for what I want, and I know what I want when it is important. My education has placed me in many group settings where ideas and personalities collided and I almost always am able to get the group back on the right track. I am very organized, and I know how to prioritize the tasks at hand so that the most important jobs get done first.
