Summary
I pride myself on absolute dedication to my principals and commitments, the most important of which being accountability. Taking responsibility for my mistakes, and supporting my coworkers with theirs helps create a work environment that enables each team member to fulfill their potential. Keeping myself open to feedback, regardless of whether it comes from a supervisor or a child in my care, is crucial to becoming a professional, and person, that I am proud to be.
