About Maria

Hi - My name is Maria and I am 27-years-old and I am currently a graduate student pursuing my Master in Social Work at Rutgers. The population I am focusing on in regard to my career is Adolescents and children therefore I have a lot of experience working with children who have experienced trauma, a mental health disorder, etc. Working in my current field teaches me to have a tremendous amount of patience. I currently have two rescue dogs (one from 11th hour the other from home for good dogs) who I adore. I am very familiar with puppies and truly love working with animals. I have been dog-sitting for 10 years now; I am currently paying for my college degree therefore having side jobs helps me tremendously! I am very trustworthy and currently have worked part-time for a family in FP for almost five years now helping out with their children and dog!
