Summary
I'm a dedicated Community Wellness Worker with hands-on experience from the Neighborhood Center. I’ve helped connect people to the resources they need and worked hard to make sure everyone felt heard and supported. I led health workshops and built strong relationships with other organizations to support the community better. I speak both Karen and Thai, which has helped me offer support to people in their own language, especially during tough times like mental health crises. I'm proud to be someone others can count on.
