I discovered my calling to become a counselor through my diverse experiences serving the community across various settings and age groups. These work and volunteer opportunities not only taught me how to effectively support and engage with others but also allowed me to develop leadership skills and apply the principles I’ve learned in my Human Development and Counseling courses. Over time, I’ve cultivated a deep passion for serving adolescents, dedicating my time and energy to making a positive impact in their lives. These experiences affirm my genuine love for helping others, a commitment I am eager to carry forward throughout my life and career.
