I am currently a third-year student in the Bachelor of Social Work program, with a solid foundation in human services through my diploma studies. Over the past years, I have cultivated a passion for social work and human services, which has led me to develop a deep understanding of the unique needs of individuals, particularly those with neurodiversity. My professional experience includes working directly with children with neurodiverse conditions, where I supported their development and well-being in both educational and social settings. This hands-on experience has allowed me to gain insight into the complexities of neurodiversity and the importance of individualized care. Through collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, I have refined my ability to develop and implement effective strategies to assist children in overcoming challenges and enhancing their quality of life.
I have also developed a strong set of skills, including communication, empathy, active listening, and problem-solving. These abilities have been integral to building rapport with clients and families, understanding their needs, and advocating for their rights. Additionally, I am highly organized, adaptable, and capable of managing multiple priorities while maintaining a high level of professionalism in fast-paced environments.
