Photography

Photography is more than a hobby to me; it's about expressing thoughts on visible events in our environment. As a teacher of basic photography in our school's journalism department, I have participated in the Photojournalism contest for two years. In my first year, my students won first place at the Division Press Conference, and in my second year, my students won second place. 

Journalism

As a photojournalism teacher and coach, I have emphasized to my students the importance of being discerning and analytical of media content seen on social platforms, heard on the radio, and viewed on television. One of my students achieved consecutive award wins in photojournalism - securing first place in the first year and second place in the following year. Additionally, I pursued a career as a radio announcer at a local station within our vicinity. Regrettably, I completed only up to the third year of my Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication degree.

Additional Information

While working on this résumé, I experienced a range of emotions. I am committed to my career and aim to progress, aware that there is room for further development. My mother's health challenges motivate me to push myself harder. I seek to showcase my skills and tackle obstacles with the encouragement of my loved ones. I am eager at the prospect of becoming part of your school district.
