Life & Career Milestones

My path in life took a while to figure out

  • 1.

    I was having problems being anxious in high school. Meeting with my social worker was thoughtful to have someone there for me.

Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Peers:

    People don't make enough money for some social worker jobs.

  • How I responded:

    I just wanted to help out people. I do private sessions after school to make more money, so it helps me get more knowledge of work rather than the same thing over and over.
