Isabella Nali

Rockland

Summary

Hello, my name is Isabella Nali. I am an 18-year-old first year nursing student at the University of Ottawa looking for a summer full-time job nearby in order to meet my financial goals and invest in my future. I am a passionate lover of history, with special interest in 18th century clothing. I have been sewing for the past 7 years, and have extensive knowledge and experience in sewing historically accurate clothing for various periods. I am motivated and used to working thoroughly in low-accountability and supervision settings. I am perseverant, responsible, and disciplined, and able to finish tasks fully. I am extremely attentive to details, and used to applying myself to intricate projects for extended periods of time. As a recent graduate of a dynamic homeschooling program, I have learned to communicate both clearly and confidently, with a teachable attitude. I am a friendly Rockland local fluent in both French and English, hardworking, I cannot wait to have the opportunity to work for you, and share my love of history and clothing through the Cumberland museum.
