Hello, my name is Student 365 and I'm working toward a Web Assistant II certificate at PCC. I graduated from PSU with a BA in German, minoring in Classical Studies and Spanish. I've done various types of freelance work, namely private tutoring, math curriculum design, editing, and translating. Web assistance was more of a hobby to help out a couple family members, but now I'd like to use that interest to open myself up to more online job opportunities, particularly in front-end design. I enjoy reading up on nutrition and healthy recipes, going for walks, and spending time with my husband and cat.
