Summary

As a Health Educator for the Healthy Neighborhoods program, I focused on developing relationships throughout our community with agencies and resources, working to assist clients with complicated needs. Doing senior outreach in zip codes with the most vulnerable, I built trust, friendships and empathy with our seniors residents. This engagement gave me great satisfaction. These skills and experiences make me an excellent candidate for the Program Coordinator position.

Dedicated health education professional eager to leverage strong understanding of health promotion principles, theories and best practices. Skilled in creating educational materials and delivering presentations with sharp eye for detail. Strong interpersonal skills for building positive relationships with focus on counseling. Personable with strong work ethic.
