PROFILE

I have 26 years of experience in servicing my community in multiple capacities for a wide range of demographics. I am an effective communicator, detail-orientated, adaptable. I am currently retired. My most recent work included assisting in New York State’s initiative to minimize the impact of the pandemic as a Case Investigator. Now, I seek to enhance the lives of our individuals with special needs in socio-emotional support through service and engagement. My passion for giving back to my community is the reason why I believe that I would be an asset to the NYS Office for People with Developmental Disabilities’ team as a Direct Support Assistant.
