Sarah-Lee Adams

I am a goal orientated individual. I work well in a team environment and get along well with others. I have been described as polite, pleasant and I am always eager to learn and assist. I take accountability for my actions, and I am able to take on responsibility.

I am able to work independently or in a team and manage my time and tasks well. I have a strong work ethic along with perseverance and diligence. I strongly feel that in this field it will enable me to make a difference and become a productive member of society.

My interest in psychology stemmed from my passion for helping others to achieve their goals as well as navigate through difficult situations and times.
