Skills

For my classes, I kept color-coded notebooks for taking notes in. I also used Apple Calendar to insert assignment due dates and important events, so I stay on top of my commitments.

Wildlife fieldwork often involves working alongside others to get a task done. In my experience searching for salamanders in Virginia with graduate students, I learned from and provided an extra hand to my researchers. We faced obstacles like power outages and cold weather with laughter, flexibility, and determination.

In my former job as Hostess at local Gainesville Korean restaurant, Momoyaki, I constantly communicated with the servers to maintain efficiency of serving tables. For my classes, I communicated with my professors via formal e-mail. On my own time, I write postcards to friends and family to keep them updated on my life.

I've used the Excel program for chemistry datasheets in Chemistry Lab as well as for attendance-keeping while working as Secretary for Honors Tabletop club. I used Word for writing assignments and lab reports in my research lab. I also use Powerpoint for formal presentations, but also for fun Powerpoint nights with friends.

An important tool for wildlife biology research data analysis, I've used the R program in multiple classes surrounding my major. Specifically, I've used R to interpret similarities and differences between wildlife populations via multivariate analyses that I ran in the program for a conservation genetics class. I've recently used R to find behavior correlations in my behavior repeatability research.

I've been exposed to the French language since I was three years old, when my mom took my to French classes with a local teacher. I officially took courses starting freshman year of high school and continued through my minor education at the University of Florida. Before completing my minor in the language, I studied abroad in Paris with a host family and took multiple grammar and composition classes.
