Summary
Compassionate, performance-driven direct support professional with six years of experience supporting individuals with varying disabilities and youth. I have completed Pre-Social Work at the University of Regina and continue to work towards obtaining a Bachelor of Social Work degree. I aspire to build new skills and gain knowledge within this field to align with optimistic future goals. I am very detail- oriented and strive to keep organized. I work best in roles that challenge me and push me to problem-solve and reach my goals. I would gladly welcome any opportunity to further discuss any details of my work history and qualities which I believe would be an asset. Thank you for your time and consideration.
