I would like to recommend Katrina for a position. I worked with Katrina when I was an Assistant Camp Director at a camp and she was a Camp Counselor. The camp is a summer camp for individuals with developmental disabilities ranging in ages from 7-28 years of age. The camp accepted individuals with all kinds of disabilities such as but not limited to ADD, Cerebral Palsy, Seizure Disorder, Muscular Dystrophy, and Para/Quadriplegia. In the two years that I worked with Katrina, she displayed a great joy and commitment to working with the campers. She was never shy about working with any camper no matter their age or disability. She tried to make the week as much fun as possible for everyone. Katrina always kept the campers best interest first; making sure they got to the nurses when needed, fed them or helped them change throughout the day. When she had questions or concerns, she did not hesitate to follow up with her head counselor and/or one of the members of the management team. I am confident that Katrina would do a great job working with and for anyone. She has a great personality and is very easy to work with. I would be glad to speak with anyone about Katrina for any job.
