OBJECTIVE
To obtain a position as a case manager/counselor in an organization that offers clinical services to people who need support and help them be better self-advocates. I have experience with data analysis, case management, and performing intake assessments. As an undergraduate, I interviewed 50 participants to collect data for a research paper. I am a detail-oriented individual with a passion for advocacy for underrepresented groups. both individually and within a larger organization. Currently, I write a blog advocating for people who don't have a voice in society such as refugees and individuals with disabilities by educating and informing my audience on many important issues such as educational inequality, gender roles, media, representation, Syrian refugees.
