About
I am a dedicated Master of Social Work graduate with a strong passion for working with older adults and addressing their unique needs. Internship experiences have honed skills in case management, holistic care planning, and advocacy for underserved populations. Proven ability to collaborate within multidisciplinary teams, conduct thorough client assessments, and provide support in crisis intervention settings.
I am currently completing a hospice care internship, gaining invaluable experience in end-of-life care, emotional support, and family coordination, and recently passed the Mississippi LMSW licensure exam to bring compassionate, evidence-based practices to enhance the well-being and dignity of elderly populations. As I begin my professional career, I am eager to apply my skills and knowledge in a hospice setting where I can provide meaningful support to patients and their loved ones during the dying process.
