  • Beschreibung

    I believe in connection as the ultimate healer.

    Whether that be connection through education: such as working at my local zoo to teach crowds of all ages on conservation efforts by leading interactive activities and engaging guests with games;

    Connection through companionship: including volunteering at a social work non-profit for home-bound elderly by coordinating home visits and leading aerobic exercise classes;

    Or even connection through coincidence: namely, stumbling upon a weekend market whilst traveling in Ireland, striking up conversation with one of the vendors over a shared interest in fiber arts, then spontaneously leading a crochet class for the local neighborhood children, and enjoying it so much that I happily returned every weekend thereafter to continue helping out;

    I value my ability to influence the world around me and welcome any opportunity to uplift communities through connection and inclusion.
    I am passionate about building relationships from a foundation of love - as I travel the world, I am eager to both meet and uplift people of diverse backgrounds.

  • Was könntest du arbeiten?

    From October 2023 to October 2024, I lead a crochet club for my fellow colleagues while working in finance full-time:
    - fostered community through bi-weekly meetings
    - educated newcomers on the basics of crochet
    - encouraged creativity through the medium of fiber arts
    - recruited new members, welcomed them and integrated them into the group

    From June 2020 to September 2020, I worked at New York University as a 'Welcome Week Leader' for a fully digital freshman orientation on Zoom:
    - lead and planned social activities for groups of 20 people and more
    - fostered a sense of belonging amongst students who were entering a new environment
    - welcomed and encouraged connection between diverse groups of people
    - initiated group conversations of up to 20 people at a time
    - moderated group discussions
    - introduced new people to each other
    - catalyzed new friendships to begin amongst strangers.

    For two summers (June 2017 - August 2017 and June 2018 - August 2018), I worked at the Queens Zoo in New York City, in partnership with the Wildlife Conservation Society:
    - lead interactive educational games and activities
    - entertained hundreds of guests of all ages daily
    - maintained the attention of large audiences of up to 50 people at a time
    - communicated important information about conservation efforts.
    - ensured a both positive reputation for the establishment and customer satisfaction by giving directions, answering their general questions, escalating issues to those who could offer assistance, and satisfying various needs

    From June - August 2016, I worked at a non-profit in New York City called 'DOROT':
    - connected with home-bound elderly through regular home visits during which we had hour-long conversations
    - assisted with various elders' technology, computers, and phones
    - helped with daily activities such as delivering groceries and cooking meals
    - lead and planned weekly aerobics exercise classes for a group of 10-20 elderly people

    In my free time, I enjoy film photography and post my photography work on my art account (instagram: @limerentvoid). I also enjoy creating crochet clothing pieces and stuffed animals for my loved ones, junk journaling, and writing poetic prose.
