Cassandra Harris

I am passionate about learning! As an educator, I loved creating engaging lessons, seeing my students grow and cheering them on along the way. While educating our youth, I discovered new passions (ones that I really excelled at): building relationships with people, identifying areas of strength and improvement, and then making detailed plans to provide the resources and support necessary for others to reach their goals. Due to physical limitations, I am transitioning out of a classroom environment and making a career change. I have strong interpersonal and communications skills which allow for exceptional teamwork and community engagement. I enjoy supporting and encouraging others to grow, learn, and thrive. I am detail oriented, love to plan and make data-informed decisions. As a life-long learner myself, I am always eager to attend professional development trainings as well as grow and excel professionally. Not only am I passionate about sharing knowledge with others and growing professionally, I am equally as passionate with consuming knowledge for personal growth! Currently, I’m juggling my free time between writing the rough draft of my debut novel, completing coding coursework toward certification in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python (the most fun I’ve had in months!), listening to audiobooks (currently reading The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N. K. Jemisin), and filling my sketchbooks with any and all 2-D mediums.

Ideal Workplace Values

Inclusive environment: a company that is on a mission to be a diverse and inclusive workplace. A place that has a long track record of empathy, professionalism, and taking care of their employees. I want to be valued as an employee and have my contributions appreciated.
