The Salvation Army Employee

"I've worked at the Salvation Joan Kroc Center while going to SDSU, throughout the years and my outstanding work performance I was able to move up the ranks until reaching Interim Aquatics Director. Unfortunately, due to my senior year at SDSU and time and mental demanding schedule both spring and fall semesters I had to let go. But through my years in the company, I learned responsibility, time management, leadership and think out-side the box. It was hard to have a job that demanded 40+ hrs a week in addition to my full time SDSU schedule. But I am thankful for the many opportunities, experiences and transformations I undertook in my stay."
