Corina Barragan
@corinabarragan
Compassionate caregiver with strong customer service and communication skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated professional with a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies from San Diego State University, where I focused on Journalism, Rhetoric in Writing, and Chicano/Chicana Studies. My educational background has equipped me with strong communication skills and a deep understanding of diverse perspectives, which I apply in my work with clients and colleagues alike.
Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience in various caregiving roles, including my recent position as a Front Desk Associate at Massage Envy, where I excelled in client relations and membership sales. I have also worked as a Lead Shift Childcare Worker at New Alternatives Inc., where I led teams in providing trauma-informed care to emotionally disturbed youth. My ability to build rapport and provide compassionate support has been a cornerstone of my professional ethos.
In addition to my caregiving experience, I have a strong background in Applied Behavior Analysis as an ABA Behavior Technician, where I developed and implemented effective care plans for children on the Autism spectrum. I am passionate about making a positive impact in the lives of those I serve and continuously seek opportunities for professional growth and development.
