I have worked in this field for over 12 years. I like what I do because it gives me a great feeling knowing that I am contributing to my community. 12 years is just an experience, experience without passion isn’t worth my 12 years. Helping is my passion and passion gives me the energy to regenerate my heart under any situations.Putting a big smile on these individuals faces also give me a big smile in and out. I get along well with my supervisor and co-workers.I know my duties so well that I don't need supervision..but will also accept any instructions from the person in charge. Easy to adapt, great advocates, lay back kind but not shy to stand out. I am here to speak and stand up for the voiceless and those in need of my services. I am courteous because giving the best service is my top priority.Put me to the test and I will be glad to face the challenge.. Willing to relocate: Anywhere
