Summary

A dedicated Level 2 Special Education Substitute with experience supporting the growth of students with autism. Previously licensed in medical administration, billing and coding, and personal training, I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Administration from National University. I am passionate about assisting individuals experiencing homelessness by connecting them with resources and mental health services. My goal is to enhance the lives of others through community outreach, resource mapping, and advocating for increased access to mental health care. Beginning my journey with community outreach, I have worked with elementary students and their families to provide essential school and hygiene items, as well as gifts and food for holiday celebrations. I believe in the transformative power of support and advocacy to foster positive change in our communities.
