Summary
Seasoned Professional Social Worker. Formerly in Accounting, but realized my dream was to work with others to heal. Desire to work helping the people who are unjustly being left out of society, because of the color of their skin or nationality. I have spent most of my career doing a job without passion. I now know that my passion is helping people and making their lives better. I have always been a compassionate person and one that everyone wanted to talk to about their problems. I have a knack for listening to others without judgement and guiding them to help them to solve their issues, thus learning how to take their power and solve issues in the future.
