Summary
I have a passion for helping individuals thrive. I have great relationship-building skills. I actively listen, take notes, and communicate with compassion to help individuals overcome obstacles they may be facing in their personal lives, i offer support, help educate, set goals, and tackle those goals while leading them positively and encouragingly. I search for local resources and help connect them to resources that make it easier for them to achieve those goals. Empowering individuals, helping them find their purpose in life being able to navigate through difficult times by supporting them so they can accomplish it, and seeing them flourish in life and overall be happier is what I strive to do.
