Summary

As a compassionate and multilingual professional, I am deeply committed to serving others and helping individuals overcome language barriers to find a sense of belonging in their new community. With a strong background in interpreting for refugees and new U.S. citizens, I bring both technical expertise and a heartfelt dedication to making a positive impact on people's lives. I am excited to bring my passion for cultural understanding and my friendly, approachable nature to the Case Manager role at a Catholic charity, where I can help clients navigate their challenges with care, respect, and a genuine desire to see them thrive in a supportive, faith-based environment.
