I would love feedback on anything. Especially the header! Thanks!

Note
You are wasting a lot of space here with your list of awards and groups. Employers are most interested in exactly what you have to offer them, so I would suggest that you use your space at the top of your resume to focus on your skills and accomplishments. Take a look at my business site for samples: www.keppiecareers.com. Click "Transformations" and consider using a similar format to focus the reader on what you actually offer!
Note
Id suggest a review of your SKILLS section - make it more specific. Employers dont want to see generalities "flexible," etc. You need to PROVE these things in your resume, and your jobs as listed dont really specify all of the skills you list here.You need to add periods to the end of your bullet points.
Note
Take a look at how I list education in my samples on www.keppiecareers.com. Use:Expected, 12/2008
Note
Need job title here. "Member of group" isnt really telling us what you were doing. What impact did you have?
Note
Some good points here. Tie them to skills. Skills lead to results...This is a good way to think about your resume!

Note
You must get this all on one page. It isnt acceptable to have a few lines hanging off, and in any case, your resume should be only one page at this stage of your career.

Thanks for asking for a review! I hope my comments are helpful. You have a lot more potential here for a great resume. Think of every line on your resume as key real estate. The most "expensive" is the header - the top 1/3rd of your resume. You are wasting yours by listing a bunch of awards and affiliations that don't mean anything to most readers. Take a look at my samples for ideas. I'm happy to help if you have questions. Email to results@keppiecareers.com. Always happy to help another person in Atlanta! Let me know if you want to contract for more help! Best, Miriam

Great academics, agree you need to use your header more wisely - perhaps move awards down to the bottom.
