1. What am I good at?
- I am a very outgoing and reliable people person. I thrive in working in diverse teams, where everyone collaborates and shares their ideas to create something great. I know when to take initiative and communicate goals affectively to anyone, and I am very straightforward and assertive when it comes to getting any tasks done, especially during high pressure circumstances.
2. What do I value?
- I value healthy working and life cultures, and teamwork. I would not be able to participate in a job where I could not interact and communicate with many people on a daily basis. It is crucial that I am working and within environments that are supportive and recognize people’s accomplishments, but also know when to communicate mistakes so growth can occur. Passive working environments are not for me – I need genuine confrontation that can help myself and my peers grow to be a better team, given in a positive manner. I also value good benefits over a larger salary, but I do expect to be paid according to the work I am doing in a given job and I will stand up for that whenever necessary in my future.
3. How did I get here?
- I got to this point in my life, graduating from OSU with a degree in business management and wanting to pursue human recourses for my career, from involving myself in controversial sorority leadership roles, taking a chance with an internship in an industry I was foreign to, and pursuing more dedication and interest in the field of HR by taking certain college classes and participating in seminars based on the topic. I also have always known that I want to work with all different walks of life and be a leader in my career within the business industry.
4. Where am I going?
- I am striving in the direction to be the head of HR for a business company one day. That would be my ideal job in working towards within my early career. Because I value healthy working cultures and working with much diversity, I want to help create a company culture as such with much of my own influence in being the HR leader. I want to instill my values and a positive and constructive working culture, while also the values of others, in order to help create a great working environment. I also want to educate others in an HR leader role on the importance of taking care of your body and healthy living for all employees outside of work and within. I want to do this by creating a health and wellness program for a company within HR to use and have as a benefit for employees.
