What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my bilingual skills and experience in direct support, focusing on client advocacy and community integration.

As a bilingual Direct Support Professional and Client Service Specialist, I am dedicated to enhancing the well-being of clients through compassionate support and effective communication. My experience spans healthcare, social services, and customer care, where I have honed my skills in resolving customer issues and supporting individuals with disabilities. I pride myself on my calm demeanor, attention to detail, and cultural sensitivity, which allow me to foster independence and build strong relationships with clients.

In my current role at Tender Love Home Services, I support clients with daily living activities, promote social connections, and document client behavior to ensure personalized care. Previously, as a Client Service Representative Trainer at Alverno Clinical Laboratories, I provided high-quality customer service in both English and Spanish, trained new staff, and maintained compliance with organizational standards. My commitment to client advocacy and community integration drives my professional ethos.
