Summary

Dependable Youth Specialist highly effective at promoting behavioral and social development. Work well with staff, kids and families to implement comprehensive support services.

Personable Paraprofessional focused on comprehensive, life-based approaches to education. Energetic problem solver, skill-builder and conflict resolver. I also can offer my time with any company. I work hard to accomplish whatever needs to be done, and I ensure that my duties are completed to perfection. In my conclusion I would like to say that I had a bit of a rough time from age 16 up until I was almost 32 before I actually grew up and started taking life more seriously and wanting to make a better life as well as choices for myself. Regardless of my past, I've been on the highway to nothing but success for over 10 years now and it's a great feeling!
