I am passionate about helping others. I began working with children in 2004 and helping them learn and develop. While working with children, I found myself spending a lot of time also working with their parents. I wanted to expand my knowledge of resources for families and began working in areas of social work. I continue to expand my knowledge of resources in the community daily through working with adults on developing support networks, coping with symptoms of mental instability, daily living skills and linking them to resources in the areas in which they live.
