Summary

Being an advocate is an important skill. Sometimes you just need to be there for someone else, to speak up for them, to lend a listening - and confidential - ear. My skills allow me to be cooperative, to build collaborative projects, and to aide others to feel confident and assured to continue their journey. Having earned dual degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology, my knowledge allows me to better understand how unexpected life can be at times, and how to be there as a safe place.
