In June 2012 I graduated from Norview High School\u00a0with honors. Throughout my junior and senior years, I attended Norfolk Technical Center where I earned a certificate in Graphic Imaging. In the Fall of 2013, I attended Tidewater Community College and obtained an Associate&#8217;s Degree in Administration Support Technology. In May 2016, through the Workforce Recruitment Program, I received an internship at the Navy Reserves Forces Command as an Administrative Support Clerk. There I performed clerical tasks while accomplishing recurring routine assignments directly related to the management of the assigned division. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In September 2019 I obtained my current employment at the U.S. Coast Guard Community Services Command. I started out as a Receptionist\/Administrative Assistant. Then in October 2021, I obtained my current position as a Civilian HR Recruitment Assistant. I am currently majoring in Occupational\/Tech Studies with a concentration in Training and Development. I found the Occupational\/Tech Studies Degree appealing because the core courses will assist me with the skills and knowledge to reason, communicate,&nbsp;and analyze complex problems&nbsp;which&nbsp;are crucial to employers. After I reach&nbsp;my goal of&nbsp;obtaining my&nbsp;Bachelor&#8217;s Degree at ODU as a Training Specialist my objective is to sustain employment in my desired occupation and to gain valuable experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-486\" width=\"319\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/simonefreemanspan101f\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33637\/2023\/07\/9E3A9665.jpg 922w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 319px) 100vw, 319px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was born and raised in Norfolk, Virginia.
