As a social worker, I am looking for a position where I can use my bilingual skills and develop the potential power of families to successfully face the challenges that life presents. I have skills to work on the strengths that each child and each family has. Especially with Hispanic children and families. For the last two years I have worked as a parenting educator, parenting instructor for Hispanic families and recently completed my studies as a Life Coach, and I am also pursuing an MSW with a specialty in immigration. I studied positive psychology at the University of Michigan and updated my knowledge in parenting psychology at Yale University..
