Skills and attitude
I consider myself a dynamic, decisive, and hard working person. I am organized and patient and I believe that these qualities have helped me develop throughout my academic and professional career. I love to learn and I enjoy what I do. My ultimate goal is to find an occupation that will help provide solutions to problems in today’s society. Since I believe in doing work that attempts to problem-­‐solve and improve society, I dedicate a large portion of my free time to volunteer work. I spend much of my volunteer time teaching for the Cybervolunteers Foundation. As a Cybervolunteer I teach courses on ICT and using the Internet to people who are “digitally excluded” or have no way of accessing and learning about Internet technologies.
