Orchard Lake Country Club

Golf Caddy

April 2020 - August 2021 • Orchard Lake, MI

What I liked

I enjoyed the networking aspect of being able to talk to different golfers and build relationships with members of the club. I also had a great experience being outside on the golf course, and working a flexible schedule while taking summer classes.

What I wish was different

I wouldn't change anything.

Advice

I think caddying is a really great way to meet people and grow your network. It can provide opportunities to speak with successful individuals that you wouldn't encounter otherwise.

Sailing Instructor

May 2019 - August 2021 • Orchard Lake, MI

What I liked

I loved the on-hands learning/teaching opportunity. I worked with kids from the age of 8 all the way up to adults teaching them how to maneuver a boat, read the water, and assess situations. I worked with several children with disabilities as well, which posed challenges I never thought I'd get the chance to help an individual overcome.

What I wish was different

Advice

No matter how hard the day has been or how you feel, it is important to learn to keep moving forward while taking care of yourself.
