What I'm looking for

I am seeking a direct-service role supporting marginalized communities where I can apply crisis intervention, survivor advocacy, and trauma-informed care while growing clinical skills and field experience.

I am an aspiring social worker with hands-on experience providing crisis intervention, survivor-centered advocacy, and trauma-informed support through hotline and shelter work. I have coordinated programs for vulnerable populations, managed volunteers, and partnered with medical teams to prioritize safety and emotional well-being.

I bring strong assessment and documentation skills, experience conducting lethality assessments and safety planning, and a demonstrated commitment to marginalized communities through both paid roles and long-term volunteer service. I am completing pre-social work studies with a 3.71 GPA and seeking direct field experience to expand my impact.
