I am a 22-year-old surgical technologist wanting to change career paths and study Development and Psychology. I feel that a lot of the time people turn their backs on individuals with disabilities and treat them differently. I always want to give my care and friendship and help everyone explore and feel happy. I have a cousin with Down's syndrome that I have been very close to while growing up together. I participated in a special buddies camp when I was younger. I also have been involved directly with patients with various special needs at my current job. I have experience as a CNA also. I have a current CPR certification. Ideally a job starting at the beginning of summer would be perfect, but am willing to adjust that. I am a very patient and kind person and a job caring for someone with special needs is something I would thoroughly enjoy.
