St. Petersburg,FL

Summary

I am seeking to change directions with my career to make a difference in people’s lives. I visited St. Vincent De Paul when I was looking to donate some very nice furniture a few months ago. I was completely blown away by the kindness and sincere care of the St. Paul Vincent representatives. I would love to have an opportunity to pursue the lead navigator position. I know I can excel in a position such as this one. I have always taken great pride in helping the homeless and people who are struggling with achieving goals without their reach.
