      Bachelor’s Degree Sociology

With the rise of social problems, I feel this degree will prepare me for the years to come as I pick a place for my Masters in Social Work (MSW).

With the rise of social problems, I feel this degree will prepare me for the years to come as I pick a place for my Masters in Social Work (MSW). As a Transfer, I have really found a passion and a new outlook on social institution conflicts, race, issues of socioeconomic stats, re-entry from incarceration, ethnic problems, etc... My desire to make a change has been fueled by moving into this every so demanding field of study. I want to be an educator so that I can make things clear to those who may be stuck in a narrow minded perspective of social issues around them. Show less

      Caretaker

      As a Certified Caretaker in the Group Housing system for Northview Health Service, I tended to the needs of an individual who lives with Autism and a couple of other debilitating mental disorders that prevented him from being able to fully care for himself at home and in public. Tasks included the following: Cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, engagement in public activities (park, movies,etc), medication administration, moral support, provided understanding and patience, and any other around the clock duties. I was trained and received a handful of certifications which include the following:1. Basic training2. MAC I3. MAC II4. CPR5. CPI- Nonviolent Crisis Intervention6. First Aid. Show less

      Volunteer

      As my volunteer work, I work to put together ideas for activities in one of the day rooms for the patients. Occasionally, I run some of the activities that are either planned or that I created. I get the patients active and engaged in the afternoons as the day comes to an end.

      Program Manager

      I am passionate about the Non-Profit world...I have been in the non-profit world for a little under 5 years now. I have a passion for work with meaning and intentional care, I have been with an organization who specialized in therapeutic treatment for children 6-17and helped family build their intake paperwork, managed and worked alongside the respite providers, and promoted the level of care the patients needed. I am currently employed with Adam's Camp as a Program Manager of Adventure Camp. I have helped grow the program, create a solid sense of culture among the young temporary employees I hire (high school and college students and graduates), create meaningful partnerships to enhance the camp experience, and lastly, I have improved the financials of the program over the last two years and put that money into the welfare of Adventure Camp. I am always looking to advance my skillset so I can better the care I provide. Show less
