About

I have worked as a case manager and billing specialist at a psychosocial rehabilitative non-profit organization for eight years in Spartanburg, SC. During that time, I have grown both personally and professionally in such areas as time management and client relations, just to name a few. It is also during this period that I realized that working in the human services field is my passion. I enjoy my daily experiences because I learn just as much from my clients as I try to teach them. Subsequently, I will be finishing a Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of South Carolina in December 2016.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I would like to advance from a case management role into a more advanced, clinical opportunity either as an administrator and/or social worker.

Graduate school interests

To be honest, I have a very busy schedule with full-time employment, family responsibilities, and grad school. However, I enjoy singing in my church choir and watching my son's little league football games.
