Summary

Dedicated and resilient with two years of successful recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. I struggled with addiction for many years and found recovery through rehab and the 12-step program. My customer service experience has taught me how to communicate effectively with a wide range of people and personalities. I have gained patience, empathy, stress management, and problem-solving skills throughout the years. Through sponsorship, I have became an expert in building meaningful relationships while maintaining strong boundaries. I am currently pursuing my degree in Psychology with a focus in becoming a Substance Abuse Counselor. Passionate about helping others on their recovery journey.
