Summary
I have worked for the public for several years now. The focus for myself, is giving back to the public whether that be with the youth, mental illness, or with activism different measures such as human rights. With my studies in Sociology, and beyond, I have become focused on Mental Health Awareness, youth care , and our basic rights as humans. In my professional career I have gained valuable experience dealing with some of the more challenging individuals in our society, and many of them whom suffer from emotional trauma and mental disorders. I have learned how to communicate effectively to deescalate aggressive/dangerous situations with troubled individuals.
