What I'm looking for
My name is Adrian Jones, and I am passionate about working with youth and helping them develop their skills. With experience as a youth coach and a background in various customer service roles, I excel in assessing the needs of my audience and adapting my communication style to ensure effective engagement. I believe in the importance of being an attentive listener and fostering a supportive environment for growth.
