What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to support individuals in need while utilizing my skills in case management and client services.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in victim services and human resources. With an Associate Degree in Applied Science: Computer Technology and a B.S. in Criminal Justice, I have developed a unique skill set that combines technical knowledge with a passion for helping others. My experience as a Victim Service Provider at the Eleventh Judicial Circuit has equipped me with the ability to provide essential resources and support to victims of crime, ensuring they feel informed and empowered throughout the legal process.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various roles that have honed my skills in case management, client eligibility determination, and administrative support. My time at the Department of Social Services allowed me to develop a keen eye for detail while determining client eligibility for SNAP and TANF applications. Additionally, my experience as a Clerk of Court Accountant has provided me with a solid foundation in financial management and record-keeping, ensuring accuracy and compliance with agency policies.
