Summary

I am pursuing a new career that allows me to channel my passion for helping others, particularly young people.

I have a natural rapport with vulnerable, as well as "spirited" youth, and having seen firsthand the many challenges our future generations face.

With youth mental health at crisis point in our country, and a government-led initiative to change that, I am committed to being part of that change.

I believe there is a growing need for professionals with lived experience who can offer genuine understanding and empathy, at early intervention.

I am focused on gaining a placement required to study a Bachelor of Social Work
