What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can deliver assessments, casework, and psychosocial support, contribute to community projects, and grow through mentoring while working in a productive, challenging environment.

I am a social worker with experience in all the social work methods which I obtained during my practical and my current volunteering environment. I am equipped with dynamic leadership skills, and I’m disciplined, mature, and passionate—always focused on being in a productive space that challenges my creativity.

Through my social work intern and volunteer roles, I conduct assessments, facilitate therapeutic services and psychosocial support to children and families, and lead or support group work activities. I also take responsibility for casework management, planning and implementing community work projects, and report writing, while ensuring implementation of statutory work and monthly monitoring through monitoring and evaluation.
