Summary

I am looking for a career which would utilize a combination of education, work experience, and personal qualities to add advancement for myself and the company.

I recently from Lock Haven University in May 2008, with a BA in Political Science and a minor in Psychology.

I presided over the American Chemical Society Student Affiliate Chapter (ACSSAC) at Lock Haven during the 2005-06 school year. I led ACSSAC to receive the only award for our chapter, which included Juniata College and Penn State University. The ACSSAC also was awarded the "Club of the Year" by the LHU Student Cooperative Council.

I was one of two women chosen to represent Lock Haven University at the Women's Summer Leadership Institute near Slippery Rock University in 2005.

I assisted Pennsylvania State Representative Tina Picket in organizing the 2005 Senior Exposition in Bradford County.

I solely fundraised, advertised, and organized an event in Spring 2006 to promote woman leadership in politics, inviting Dr. Kimberly S. Adams (Currently teaching at East Stroudsburg University) to speak at our university.

I sat on the selection committee for the Lock Haven Women of Distinction Award in Fall 2007.
