Work History
Certified Peer Support Specialist
RI International
Greenville, United States
01.2021 - 01.2022
While employed with RI International as a Peer Recovery Support Specialist, I assisted individuals with tasks and tips to build, improve and/or maintain their independent living skills. Working with individuals whom struggle with a mental health and/or substance use diagnosis has become a specialty of mine over the years with experience. Allowing me the privilege to work one on one with the individual to trouble shoot any problems/concerns they may be experiencing. I've expanded my knowledge with problem solving skills, seeking resources within the community and providing solutions to problems that the client didn’t think were possible.
Administrative Assistant
Dream Provider Care Services
Washington, United States
01.2020 - 01.2021
As an Administrative assistant for the MAT Suboxone program, I worked along side my supervisor assisting with daily tasks for substance and mental health patients that consisted of appointment scheduling, submitting relevant documents to an EHR system for the patients assigned to counselors/Doctors of the practice, building report from the patient for the Doctor(s) as well as collecting drug screenings such as mouth swabbing and urine drug screens. Not to mention auditing medical records and obtaining missing documents in a timely manner. While attending to my Administrative Assistant position I was also dedicating time on the side to complete my training/hours to become a Licensed substance abuse counselor. Just before my time ended at the facility I was the co-facilitator for overflowing SAIOP/SACOT SA groups, program groups that taught recovery skills and lessons to implement in daily life. At this job especially during the outbreak of COVID I as well as my teammates were expected to wear and execute many duties, job titles or what I like to call 'hats'. I learned here to multitask and be good at it. I enjoyed the fast pace constant work load.
Caregiver
Wooded Acres Group Home
Washington, United States
01.2018 - 01.2020
As a caregiver with WAGH I cared for 6 clients in the home located on the facility site. Being the only staff in the home with the 6 individuals, my duty was being in charge of handling all medications for daily doses of each client, prepping 3-4 meals a day, bathing requirements, laundry and bedding daily, implementing some engagement in activities as well as physical activities for the clients to keep them active and healthy. Also providing structure to maintain a routine and transportation to/from doctor appointments to maintain mental health diagnosis.
Assistant Store Manager
Moore's Old Tyme Barbecue
Greenville, United States
01.2017 - 01.2018
Starting out at MOTB, as a crew member and within a month promoted to the assistant manager. My role was to run the store most days from open to close and ensuring that everyone was in the position for the day and that all customers were taken care of with great hospitality. From making the crews schedule to counting the monies and doing deposit bank drops. Prepping for next business day and daily catering orders. It was a great experience at 18 years old to be the top of the crew and becoming leader everyone leaned on. Learning not to allow my age to stop me from giving directions for someone elder than me on a neutral work based enviroment. I learned authority skills and how to deal with the general public on a new level in the food industry.
