Summary

After retiring from the nursing field, I felt like the helping and assisting others aspect was missing. This need was met in volunteering my time at Martha's Table. I am skilled in fostering teamwork, demonstrating exceptional problem-solving abilities and a positive attitude.

I am an earnest individual with experience in human services field providing support and guidance to individuals in need. Strong understanding of effectively working with people from diverse backgrounds and am passionate about helping others access needed services.
