Overall, I am passionate about helping others, love creativity, and am inspired by all stories that make individuals unique.
My focus (education) is in macro-based social work specialized in Organizing and Community Practice. I hold interest in boosting economic empowerment in disenfranchised areas through the utilization of evidence-based research and social action.
As a current workforce development specialist my daily goal is to help improve the quality of life for my clients through employment. Beyond employment, the hope is to empower individuals in my community to lead their spaces, highlight and protect the socio-economic value of these spaces, and encourage impactful community involvement, to be active and knowledgeable participants in the change they want to see
