Summary

A motivated and empathic worker driven to improve life for those facing extreme poverty. I am eager to use and hone the public health skills I developed . My work experience has sharpened these skills and prepared me for the reality of helping those in need. I am aware that helping others change is not easy, but the opportunity to help even one person is the most fulfilling work a person can commit themselves to.
