I have a bachelor's degree in sociology and psychology . I worked at Boys and Girls Club for a year and have always wanted to be in a career which involves helping others. I have worked as a Direct Support Professional at Disability Supports of the Great Plains where I provided support to adults with all types of disabilities and also held a position as Program Coordinator with the same organization. I most recently worked at a mental health center for 3 years as a Children's Case Manager. At this position, I worked with children with Severe Emotional Disorders to help them develop coping skills, executive skills for the classroom, social skills, etc in order to meet their goals. In addition to being experienced in teaching kids lots of skills needed for their every day lives in a very casual way (they hardly know they're learning!) I am also an avid reader and love reading with children. I love the outdoors, crafts, and playing games with kids.
