Hockey, Spending time with family, movies

Love skating on the outdoor rinks and remembered all the good times of playing hockey as a youth. Now that I have a family I can share that with them if they so choose. As for movies I was forced as you were to stay in during the pandemic and watched many good and bad movies.

Additional Information

I am very reliable, punctual and quick learner. I have valuable experience in youth care and cultural awareness and can work independently or as a team.
