Summary
I have been working in the child welfare field for the last 10 years but would like to be in a different line of work that is people oriented in a more relaxed setting. I do well working with children and older adults. In my previous years I have worked in a University Law Library and I have spent 2 years as a Pre-K assistant working in a classroom.
