I am a dedicated professional with a background in psychology, mental health support, and behavior intervention. With experience as an Instructor Therapist, Case Manager, and Early Childhood Educator Assistant, I am passionate about supporting individuals with diverse needs, particularly in mental health, addictions, and autism intervention. My career has also included roles in customer service, where I honed my communication and problem-solving skills. Currently pursuing certifications in Addictions & Mental Health, I am committed to continuous learning and professional growth. My interests lie in advocacy, community support, and creating inclusive environments that foster development and well-being.
