Summary

Social worker with a master's degree and a professional educators license. Participated in training courses such as Ukeru and Crisis prevention Interventions (CPI) which assist to keep myself, staff, and students safe within their environment. I have been a school social worker for two years and have experience in crisis intervention and positive rapport building. I ran both individual and small groups that focused on social emotional skills. I have communicated with families within the community to provide resources and eliminate barriers. My passion lies in working with children and families to help them succeed within their environment and navigate their emotions.
