At this point in time, I have been co-leading the Creoks BISSS program since December of 2023 where I utilize many different hats and roles to meet the needs of my clients, and my schools. This program is designed to help those students in dire situations that the school feels need outside support from mental health professionals

During my first school year alongside collecting my own caseload of generally over sixty clients, I set up referral systems for the schools, organize multi-disciplinary team meetings for each school, trained and continue to supervise a team of behavioral health coaches embedded at each of my schools, and have served clients countless times on crisis response teams for said schools

In my own case work, I have conduct intakes, assessments of client's situations, identifying strengths, goals, and interventions when needed. Not to mention hours of resource gathering and collection for clients needing various items from food and clothing all the way to birthday presents and Halloween costumes.

Years of maintaining accurate documentation on my cases ensuring compliance with regulations and policies

I embed therapists and coaches that work on site at schools in order to deeply network with each of my schools to make sure all parties are understood and working together to assist our clients

During this second school year we have doubled the number of schools in our clusters requiring us to expand and have also recently expanded into the Mid-Del City School District where I have started to assist in the training of staff being hired there, Case Managers and Behavioral Health coaches alike

Throughout my time here I undergone numerous training courses with certificates while here to be an effective support and coordinator for the elderly, veterans, youths of every age category, high risk clients, behavioral health coaching, disabled people and much more

In 2020 I was hired for my first Case Management role in Permanency Planning where I helped to find permanent placement for children and clients within my caseload

I worked under a team leader where I was taught case management as well as how to effectively navigate the court system to represent our clients

I successfully closed out many cases during my tenure and saw that my clients had wonderful homes and the true mental and physical healthcare they need

During my time at DHS, I also worked on the on-call schedule traveling across the state to look after children in crisis

I have been put into many scenarios that most people would find incredibly anxiety inducing or highly stressful, whereas I am able to keep calm and collected

This profession gave me thick skin and showed me how tough the world can be for people, especially parents and their children, greatly honing my empathy skills

• After being promoted to Market Manager from being a cashier, I developed a strong and hard work ethic to make sure my department was clean
• I looked after fresh produce, and supervised a small team to make sure our products were fresh and desirable for the customers
• I oversaw the ordering of food and merchandise to keep our sales in line and in fact saw an increase in sales over my time there
• From there, I moved over to managing the online operations as it was a new department at the time gaining a lot of traction
• I helped to develop the personal shopping system at my store at the time, and saw our sales increase dramatically once our shoppers were put into place and working as a team
• I trained new workers and supervisors as well as handling client relations
• This profession is where I began to learn how to truly network for myself

• This job, after getting certified, I created on my own as a way of making more money and business for myself
• I built my clientele from the ground floor, putting in dozens of hours of hard work recruiting by making flyers, posting ads, and even giving out free sessions to attract a larger consumer audience
• I was able to successfully garner a full client load of 15-20 clients on top of the managerial work I was doing at Wal-Mart
• My organizational skills greatly improved during this time as I needed to adapt to the heavy workload, I volunteered for myself
