Hi there, first off let me say congrats on all your achievements and hard work!! I’ve added some websites for helping you format your resume properly. Any & all edits etc I’ve made are only suggestions – this is your resume so feel free to do what you’d like with them. You’ve got a lot of great experiences & achievements!!! I edited in word which let me put my edits in bold etc but I couldn't do that here - if you would like me to email you the word doc just let me know. Your education & training etc should be listed prior to your work experience. You also need a heading and objective – the websites can help you with this – choose headings like Professional Experience as opposed to Work Experience etc. Plus make sure to include a cover letter.
