@amyyoung
Motivated business professional with expertise in family support services.
I am a motivated and personable business professional with multiple years of experience in real estate sales and marketing, as well as the insurance industry. My extensive knowledge and training in understanding substance use disorders allow me to provide family support and community connections effectively. I pride myself on being a result-oriented, decisive leader with proven success in strategic thinking, problem-solving, and human relations.
Throughout my career, I have managed confidential records and materials with sensitivity, demonstrating flexibility and versatility while maintaining a sense of calmness under pressure. As a Family Peer Support Specialist, I specialize in supporting families affected by substance use disorders and mental health challenges. My life experience as a parent of an adult child with these diagnoses, combined with my professional training, enables me to empower and connect families in need of resources.
In my current role, I work closely with families and individuals returning to their communities after incarceration or long-term rehabilitation. I have built professional partnerships that provide essential resources throughout Southern Maryland. Additionally, I have participated as a panelist at several events, sharing my journey and insights as a Family Peer Support Specialist. I am an adaptive learner and collaborator, holding certifications that enhance my ability to support families effectively.
