Summary
Being involved with both paid and non-paid positions has given me the skills to be able to effectively work in interdisciplinary settings. It has also given me the skills to be able to evaluate an issue and come up with solutions that will be effective for not only the client and team but for the organization as a whole. My involvement in various positions has led to changes in practices and policy changes that have improved the environment for people with disabilities.
