I am a school social worker and I regularly work with kids and teenagers with special needs. I would describe myself as responsible, patient, and friendly. I love helping people and am lucky to be in a field that is so rewarding. During the summer, I have a lot of free time since I am not in school and I am also available in the evenings during the school year.
