Diversity Statement:

I have been working with a diverse population since my early adulthood. Besides speaking three languages, I’ve lived in South Florida for 26 years. As a result, I have experience with diverse cultures, religions, and tongues, and I love working with and learning from people worldwide.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, so it is part of my education to learn about different cultures.
I am also a school guidance counselor. I have to be ESOL (English as Second Language) certified, which also gave me excellent knowledge about how to help students who do not speak English and learn about their cultural background. Understanding a person’s culture is essential to know how they learn and the best way to teach them.
