📊👩🏻💻✨ Marketing Data Enthusiast — Revenue Development Representative at Funnel📚📈 Probably reading the WSJ 📰
Being a summer camp counselor set me up for LIFE, but HOW exactly? Be Flexible Things rarely go exactly how you plan when dealing with 100+ kids and dozens of daily activities. Being able to entertain through different methods on the fly with limited supplies is an art. Energy Matters It’s only a bad day if you let it be, and kids pick up on your energy like a bloodhound. If you aren’t excited about what is next, why should they be? Making a glass-half-full perspective your default spills over into every other aspect of your life. Faith (in myself) Without realizing it, you’re leading groups of people and making automatic decisions based on information and instinct. In this process, you build trust with both others and yourself. I could go on for ages, but you get the idea—those summer experiences manifested into skills I now carry in my personal and professional life. P.S., if you’re a former camp counselor, you know how easy it is to spot another in the wild!

"We work to ensure Vida Verde students view nature as a place FOR them; a place they have a fundamental right to access to heal, grow, and explore, and a place that influences them as leaders to vote, act, and spend with the environment in mind." - Vida Verde Like so many of you, I started in academia through a love of camp. Environmental Education was an early outlet for my passion for the outdoors. That passion has grown to encompass the importance of farming, and growing your own food as a way to combat poverty, helplessness, and a lack of hope in an uncertain world. Sharing this with people who haven't yet experienced the wonder and grounding that comes with understanding how to live with the land cemented its importance in the world for me. Vida Verde is an exceptional program that provides FREE, overnight environmental learning experiences for students from our historically marginalized communities. These young students participate in a three-day, two-night camping trip as a class during the school year that takes place in San Gregorio, on Ramaytuch Ohlone land. If you're interested in a job with purpose, whose goal is to to positively and powerfully impact students’ academic performance, character development, and connection to the outdoors, then check out these opportunities. There is on-site housing, training, and you couldn't be working for a greater cause. https://lnkd.in/gW3nd7XU

Missing Persons on Spring Break Traveling abroad for Spring Break can be an unforgettable experience, but it's important to remember that safety should always be a top priority. Did you know that 90% of missing person reports are filed by over-intoxicated students who have simply lost their way? Kidnapping is not the cause. As someone who has traveled with artists and bands overseas, I know that following Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) is crucial to ensuring everyone's safety. Our proven checklist runs on a 60-minute timeline and includes a safety brief that helps us find missing persons. One of our briefing points is taking a group photo before heading out and sending it to everyone in the group. This way, we know what everyone is wearing and can easily identify them if they get lost. This is just one item on the checklist that we follow to ensure a successful trip. But it’s not just about the checklist. It’s also about building relationships with the resorts, law enforcement, hospitals, and local groups. These connections add to our success in ensuring everyone's safety. Planning and following SOP is key to having a safe Spring Break abroad. Let's make sure that everyone comes home safe and sound. #lmc #springbreak2024 #lvin #juscollege #cabosanlucas #collegestudents #safetmanagememt

Monday is the most important day of the work week. If you knock it out of the park on Monday, you’ll be running the bases the rest of the week.
I don’t post much, but I think this might help some folks Why I accepted a job at Cenergistic: When offered the Cenergistic Energy Specialist position for the Abilene Christian University campus I was excited and more than a little nervous. I was not qualified for the position being offered. Heck, I didn’t even know for sure what the job entailed. I had been working as a groundskeeper for the university and was not making ends meet. My expenses exceeded my income each month and my savings was almost depleted. I was also involved in a lot of volunteer ministry projects in my off-work hours. So, I was concerned that the demands of this new job might cut into my number 1 priority; advancing the Kingdom of God. I was between a rock and a hard place mentally, financially and spiritually. What I did? After a lot of prayer, I researched the values and character of Cenergistic and sought the counsel of mature friends and loving family members. I considered what my own motives were. I asked myself, “Why should I take the job?” Of course I needed to make more money, but that wasn’t enough of a reason for me. I enjoyed my job as a groundskeeper and I cared about my coworkers. Then, after praying, my answer became clear: 1. Jesus talked a lot about stewardship… and the Energy Specialist position is about energy and financial stewardship. 2. Money saved by avoiding unnecessary energy use would save jobs. My friends in the facilities department need their jobs. They need to provide for their families. They have dreams they want to pursue. I would have the opportunity to help them do that; help people provide for their families and their dreams. 3. I would have the opportunity to encourage even more people in their faith, to pray with them about their needs and even lead some to a saving faith in Jesus Christ the Messiah. Needless to say, I accepted the position. That was a little over 7 years ago. Since then I have helped Abilene Christian University save millions of dollars in utility costs with the support of the people, training, and technology of Cenergistic . My new adventure has saved jobs and helped families. I have seen the Lord work in more lives (once again: helping families). None of my volunteer ministry has suffered, either. Actually, it has expanded. If you’re considering a rewarding career, you might consider Cenergistic #Cenergistic #energyconservation

If you do not know about the "summer slide," you should. Children can lose one to two reading skill levels if not actively engaged during the summer months. This is a real opportunity for newspapers to partner with local libraries to cross-promote. #newspapers #publishing #summerslide #schools #curriculum
