What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on disability or medical case management and program coordination where I can lead interdisciplinary teams, deliver client-centered rehabilitation, and drive measurable recovery outcomes.

I am a Registered Social Worker with over five years' experience across disability case management, medical social work, program coordination, and community services. I have managed high-volume and complex caseloads, developed innovative rehabilitation and discharge plans, led interdisciplinary collaboration, and improved recovery outcomes through evidence-based interventions.

I bring strong client advocacy, crisis intervention, and remote rehabilitation skills, backed by a Bachelor of Social Work (Dean's Honour's List) and multiple certifications in mental health, crisis response, and cultural safety. I am results-driven, organized, and experienced in coordinating services, volunteer teams, and stakeholder partnerships to support client autonomy and meaningful quality of life.
