Work
and Volunteer Experience and Actual Skills Gained:
Business/Entrepreneurship
I
ran my own African dance troop, as a high school student (1993-1994).
We were paid for most of our performances. Often times, I featured
my own line of clothing, 10 or so pieces, that were made out of
African fabric, at the same time that we performed. And I designed
and sewed, almost all off the African dance costumes, for the entire
troop—myself, although, I did have a little assistance from my
mother and a family friend.
In
addition, I have done a small amount of grass roots marketing with:
Teatro Del Pueblo in MN, as an AmeriCorps member (1995-1996). I
suggested questionnaires, in order to evaluate both: satisfaction
with the end product, and to evaluate the quality of the services
provided. Since that time, I have taken two research classes
(undergraduate and graduate), which have provided me with a great
deal of information and experiences, in regards to: clinical/on site
research, data collection and evaluation, and the basics of
statistics.
I
also have the ability to write grants. When I worked as an
undergraduate, at Florida State University, I wrote for a grant that
was given to: the Florida State University Medical School (P.I.M.S.
Program).
In
addition, as part of my volunteer activity, as a pre-medical student
in the Tallahassee, FL community, I helped to write the by-laws for,
and to establish, a non-for-profit medical and education outreach
program, in: 1999. I also designed the T-shirt logo, and the
pamphlet, with the assistance of a friend of mine, who was an art
major at Florida State University, and her mother, who was a
profession graphic artist.
Teaching/Tutoring
I
have worked as an instructor in three after school programs, in both:
Florida and Georgia. I was trained and certified in early childhood
education, while I was an undergraduate student at Florida State
University, so that I could work in a pre-school where my children
were in attendance. I have worked as: a daycare provider, a nanny,
an assistant pre-school teacher, and a lead pre-school instructor.
Writing/Editing
I
have been in college since 1993. When I was in high school, I was
selected for an honor’s award, for the diligence with which, I
applied to improving my English writing skills. As both: an English
and Honor's undergraduate student, I have engaged in a great deal of
research and writing of all types of papers, in both: M.L.A. and
A.P.A. format. In addition, I wrote a voluntary thesis for my
Master's Degree.
Community
Organizations
I
have volunteered off and on for many years--since I was in middle
school (1988), for: March of Dimes, Children's Home Society,
AmeriCorps, Bond Community Health Center, Madison County Nursing
Home, etc..
Computers/Technology
I
have a Master's Degree in Library and Information Science. I
specialized in information science. I am familiar with a: MAC/iMAC,
but recently, I have only been working on: a laptop/notebook, or a
desk top P.C. . I utilize the most recent Microsoft O.S. and word
processing programs available. I know how to utilize movie software
and sound mixing software, and excel as well.
In
addition, I am familiar the in’s and out’s of the Internet. I
engaged in a great deal of Internet research, while I was preparing
my voluntary thesis, and I took a class which familiarized me with
some of the most popular social networking sites. One of my
favorites is: Facebook, but I have participated in others, such as:
Flicker and Delicious, as well.
CPR/First
Aid
I
may get certified again, soon. I have been certified before (1997).
I had to be certified in both: C.P.R. and First Aid, in order to
qualify for my early childhood education certificate.
Fundraising/Grant
Writing
I
wrote a grant, which was given to: the Florida State Medical School
P.I.M.S. program, when I worked there. The grant writing was part of
the service that I provided, as a state employee, for the university.
Law/Pre-Legal
Studies
I
have just recently been accepted to law school, in both: the U.S. and
the U.K. . I may begin an online class through the U.K., on the 15
of Feb, 2012. In addition, I participated in a summer minority
pre-legal studies program at the Florida State College of Law (1998).
The legal classes that were offered, were, Intro to: legal writing,
legal research, case analysis, moot court, etc. . I earned several
superlatives for my participation.
I
also worked as a legal secretary, for a brief period of time, for Mr.
Mark Olive, Esq., while I was an undergraduate at Florida State
University (2000). In addition, I had the opportunity to study both:
legal research and some legal policy, which relates to information
science, while I was studying for my Master's Degree (2009). I may
attend a U.S. law school in the fall of 2012, if I receive adequate
funding.
Fine
Arts/Crafts
I
have been taking art classes since I was in elementary school, and I
have been participating in art competitions, and exhibits, as well.
I won a prestigious art award, when I was in 5th grade, for an
interpretation of the King Tut art exhibit, which was visited by my
entire 5th
grade class, in nearby Jacksonville, FL. I took many art classes in
high school as well. I participated in the high school art
exhibition, every year that I was enrolled in high school
(1990-1994).
I
had some independent experiences with graphic art in college. I
designed a: T-shirt logo and a brochure, for: a non-for-profit
organization, that I was helping to establish, with the assistance of
a college friend and her mother. The T-shirts turned out well, and
the logo was not difficult to design from scratch.
I
have been dancing since I was two years old. In high school I was a
paid performer, who both: taught and performed African dance. The
dance group engaged in one fund raiser, at a local black box theater.
I made all of the arrangements myself, and incorporated other
professional performers in the Gainesville, FL community. In
addition, I engaged in, and I was paid for my participation in:
Community Theater, in Gainesville, FL. I participated in several
local T.V. interviews, in regards to both: the dance and community
theater participation.
In
the summer of 1994, I began college on a dance scholarship, at a
community college, and my first semester at a 4 year college, of the
same year, I studied mostly: dance and theater. Later, just before
graduating with my B.A. in English, I enrolled in a Drama/English
course, in the University of Florida’s English Department. It was
the most fun class, which I enrolled at the University of Florida.
Youth
Development
I
was certified by the girls club of Gainesville, FL, to work as a baby
sitter, when I was in middle school. In addition, I have been
working with youth in: after school programs, daycare, and pre-school
programs, since 1993. I was certified, in 1997, in Leon County, FL,
to work as a certified daycare provider.
Education
I
taught academic materials in: after school programs and in daycares.
I took a multi-cultural undergraduate class, while I was a student at
Florida State University, as well, which gave me some insight into
the formal education system, for: elementary, middle, and high school
students, in Florida.
Public
Health
As
an employee and as a volunteer, I have provided some basic community
outreach services, such as: S.T.D. education, and other basic
preventative health education, and I know how to take blood pressure
with a cuff, but I have not received any formal training. I am
comfortable with public speaking, and I would not mind providing
educational information, in a formal or informal setting. I am more
than capable of doing the leg work and research, for such a task,
myself. I have a very good memory, and I am capable as an
extemporaneous speaker/educator--as well.
Leadership
I
have participated and led numerous clubs and organizations, since
high school (1990-1994). I established my own organization as
well—The Rainbow Tribe (African Dance Group), when I was in high
school (1993-1994). In addition, I lead several dance groups, in
both: high school, and during my first two, semesters of college
(Summer 1994, and Fall term 1994).
Public
Speaking
The
majority of my public speaking experience is through my experience
with both: high school and Community Theater. However, I was senior
class President in high school, and I had to run for the office. I
also participated in moot court, during my minority summer of law
school participation, on scholarship. In addition, I was obligated
to present, at the end of my undergraduate honor’s classes, to the
entire class (2004). It was nerve wrecking at the time, but I did
fairly well.
Medicine
I
worked for the medical school at Florida State University, when they
were the P.I.M.S. program, which was a joint program with The
University of Florida. I volunteered at Bond Community Healthcare
Center, and at the residency program at: Tallahassee Memorial
Hospital. I volunteered at a nursing home, although sporadically,
for several months as well, on the weekends. In addition, during
that time, I spent a great deal of time reading professional medical
journals, such as: J.A.M.A. . I was beginning my formal pre-medical
experiences, and I was also preparing to begin the academic portion
of my pre-medical studies—in earnest.
