Summary

I’m a dedicated, community-oriented individual with a strong background in volunteer service, including three years as a firefighter and leadership in school and sports. My Education Assistant practicum gave me valuable experience supporting students with diverse physical and communicative needs. Growing up on a rescue farm, I’ve assisted in veterinary care and developed a deep understanding of rehabilitation through personal family experiences. I'm hardworking, compassionate, and eager to build a career in rehabilitation to better serve others.
