Summary

Former criminal justice student passionate and eager to transition into the field of social work. I am interested in using what I learned in a more hands on approach. Through my academic and real-life experiences, I’ve developed strong skills in active listening, critical thinking, and working with people from all backgrounds. I am ready to be educated more and apply those skills in a social work setting.
