Communication skills
? In all three volunteer and leadership positions I had to learn to talk to different types of people

Organizational skills
? At the center for hearing and speech I had to organize files from their clients and the students in alphabetical order
? For the Heiress ministry I had to organize the dates for the meetings as well the preaching that is going to be given.
? At the Izaguirre law firm each case had its own file and documentation that had to be kept up to date and fled away in alphabetical order
Time management skills

? Working at a law firm means being on top of documentation and turning in official documents on time.
