Luz Mariana Ferrigno

East Palo Alto

Summary

I bring a diverse background in entrepreneurship, healthcare, and education. I’ve had the rewarding experience of owning my own lash extension business, which taught me valuable skills in time management, customer relations, and the knowledge of running a business. In addition, I’ve worked as a caregiver in the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program, providing compassionate care to those in need, and as an after-school children’s instructor, where I discovered my passion for working with children in educational and healthcare settings. I thrive in environments where I can combine my interpersonal skills with my passion for helping others. Working in healthcare and with children has reinforced my commitment to making a positive impact, and I’m always eager to learn and grow in these fields. Currently a full-time student at San Jose State University, I am continually seeking opportunities to expand my knowledge and explore new career paths to find where I can make the greatest contribution. I am a dedicated, adaptable, and goal-driven individual, constantly seeking to learn new things, optimize my skills, and contribute meaningfully to the teams and communities I serve. I'm excited to connect with like-minded professionals and explore opportunities where I can continue to grow and make a difference.
