Hi, I’m
Shelli Sharp

Summary
After a fulfilling career in education, I have made the decision to transition from teaching to a new professional path, where I can continue to utilize the skills that have shaped my career—organization, creativity, and a deep passion for helping others. Throughout my years as an educator, I have developed a strong foundation in managing complex situations, fostering growth, and providing support to individuals in meaningful ways. I am eager to apply these abilities in the field of healthcare, where I believe my experience can make a significant impact. In this next chapter, I am committed to offering the same level of dedication, empathy, and structure, while helping individuals navigate their own unique challenges and needs.
