I am extremely skilled in working with people and my own. I love being of help and learning new skills to help even more! I am always excited to learn and achieve. When I graduated high school I left with four awards and very high grades, I made sure I impressed and exceed expectations. 

I also have many volunteer hours dedicated towards helping Special Olympics BC with various amount of things! I had the opportunity to meet many people of different cognitive abilities and really found a passion for helping and understanding them! I also helped and cared for people who had disabilities and I find myself very able to work in high pressure situations as well as keep calm and collected always.
