What I'm looking for

I seek a community-centered role where I can promote literacy, run inclusive programs, and contribute to accessible learning with opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated, community-focused professional with hands-on experience in library services, education, caregiving, and peacebuilding. I center accessibility, inclusion, and literacy promotion in all roles and bring patience and clear communication to community settings.

As a Library Assistant at the Kakuma Refugee Camp, I managed cataloging, lending, reshelving, and ran reading programs and youth literacy events that fostered a safe and engaging learning space. Earlier teaching roles reinforced my ability to develop and deliver literacy-focused lesson plans and encourage independent reading among primary learners.

My caregiving work in Halifax involved providing personal care, companionship, and detailed care records while collaborating with nursing staff—experience that strengthened my empathy, reliability, and record-keeping. I also participated in peacebuilding facilitation, designing and delivering workshops on nonviolent communication and conflict resolution with youth and community leaders.

I hold a Diploma in Social Work and certificates in Early Childhood Education, Community and Business Development, and Peace Building. I am seeking opportunities where I can apply my organizational skills, community outreach experience, and commitment to accessible learning in welcoming community spaces.
