Emily Cashour

Full CV / Resume

My main goals are to learn about and gain experience in any and all types of writing, and to travel in order to understand many different cultures and to gain valuable life experiences. I am a junior and Writing/Sociology double major at Loyola University Maryland in the United States, but am currently studying abroad in Cape Town, South Africa at the University of Cape Town. I plan to eventually pursue a career in magazine journalism if possible, and to further my education in graduate school. Before that time, however, I would like to spent at least one year abroad teaching English, I would like to volunteer with one or more nonprofit organisations that work with either children or animals, and I would like to live in several different countries. My skills include creative and professional writing, pet sitting and care, volunteer work with children, adults, and animals, education and tutoring students from a range of skills, including students with learning disabilities, and the maintenance and safety of pool/pool facilities. I am proficient in both English and French, but am interested in learning several more languages, including but not limited to, Spanish, Portuguese, Xhosa, and German.
