Neil A. - Austin Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Neil A.

Part-Time, 0 Years of Experience

I have two formal years of experience with individuals with special needs and have kept up with a few individuals since. In my two years experience, I participated both in a Partner's in PE class at Westwood High School and was a partner in Special Olympics for the Round Rock Roadrunners in Soccer, Basketball, and bowling, where, in 2006, I received the "Partner of the Year" Award. My whole life I have had a desire to care for people. From my first experience with individuals with special needs, I found a particular passion and interest in caring for them. It was a surprisingly natural interaction for me and I have enjoyed doing it ever since.
