Security Guard and youth worker focused on safety, de-escalation, and care.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Security Guard and first responder who focuses on safety, visible presence, and calm, effective response in high-traffic environments. At Paragon Security, I conduct routine patrols, monitor CCTV, control access points, and write detailed incident reports while coordinating with Durham Regional Police Service, EMS, Fire, and mall management during emergencies.
I also bring experience supporting youth in structured residential settings as a Youth Worker, where I manage daily routines, administer prescribed medications with protocol, complete risk assessments, and use Understanding and Managing Aggressive Behaviour (UMAB) to de-escalate conflict. Alongside security and youth care, I’ve built strong service and compliance skills through roles in food service, dispatch operations, and a regulatory insurance sales position as an LLQP Life Agent.
