Summary

A responsible individual who is adamant about carrying through the duties entrusted to me. My enthusiasm towards serving my community has inspired me to be involved in community works at Students without Borders Club and Maskan non-profit organization. In addition, my leadership skill has helped me mentor students, my peers as well as younger children, throughout my school life; for example in my volunteer work at the Homework Club and Mentorship program. I am a highly conscious and caring person who is passionate about helping others using my strength, such as communication skills in English, Amharic, and Oromo.
