Jun 2022 - Aug 2022
This summer I worked as a Hostess for the Olympia Tea Room. In addition to working the door, I also worked as overall support staff for the servers, by managing server sections, running food, and cleaning and setting tables. This position helped me develop my customer service skills and allowed me to gain experience working in a fast-paced environment, as I provided exceptional customer service to 200+ customers each shift, answered phone calls, and managed reservations and waitlists. I am grateful for my experience working at the Olympia Tea Room this summer and hope to work with them again! Show less

Counselor for Summer Treatment Program
-
Jun 2022 - Jul 2022
This summer I had the pleasure of working as a counselor for the Child Mind Institute's Summer Treatment Program. I worked as a counselor for CMI's 4-week intensive care program for kids struggling with ADHD and other behavioral and social difficulties. The Summer Program is a way for children to enhance their social and learning skills, while simultaneously developing emotional and environmental awareness. As a counselor for this program, I was paired with a different kid each day to help them learn skills for social interactions in classroom environments. Working with the Child Mind Institute this summer has helped me learn about what I am looking to do in the future and has laid a strong foundation for me to understand the realities of clinical work with children. I appreciate the entire CMI team for giving me this opportunity, and I hope I can work with them again in the future! Show less
