Summary

Since joining Summit, I have experienced professional growth. I am confident in my ability to excel as a Team Leader due to my strong organizational skills, in-depth knowledge of company policies and procedures, and familiarity with the client population we serve. Highly motivated, with a strong work ethic, I am committed to maintaining a smooth, supportive environment for both youth and staff.

I actively contribute to youth engagement, provide consistent support during crisis situations, and ensure their needs are met promptly. Additionally, I have hands-on experience in updating youth's Plan of Care documents and binders, helping to keep their progress aligned with the program.
