I am passionate about investing in the lives of individuals and helping each person to grow and gain their own personal strength. I believe people need to be encouraged to say what they feel and think; this allows the opportunity for the deepest understanding of themselves and their experiences. I believe people should be given the opportunity to improve and expand all areas of their life as they wish. I also believe empathy is my greatest strength. Only when acting out of empathy can I understand other people. When I empathize with those in need, I can understand their pain and circumstances, and so I am obligated to help them, to comfort them and understanding their struggles.
