Summary

I’m a dedicated Direct Support Professional with two years of hands-on experience working closely with individuals who have developmental and communication needs. Currently pursuing my Master’s in Speech-Language Pathology, I’ve found a deep passion for helping others express themselves and connect with the world around them. My background has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and individualized support—skills I’m excited to carry into my future role as a speech-language pathologist. I’m driven by the belief that everyone deserves to be heard, and I’m committed to making that possible through compassionate, client-centered care.
