Work
I currently work as a Childcare Provider at Kidz Connection, overseeing after-school care and assisting with recruitment and parent communication. I also intern at the Center of IoT Engineering and Innovation at ECU, where I track inventory and review device code for functionality. These roles have strengthened my problem-solving, teamwork, and communication skills in both childcare and technology environments.
