More About Me
How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
Partnering with new participants requires the development of a relationship and trust. When introducing myself, I explain my role and personal goals as an IRIS Consultant. In doing so, I express my intent to help participants reach their goals. While discussing goals of the participant, I review services and supports available. It is essential to form a secure and trusting relationship to provide the upmost support in reaching goals.
What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
The most rewarding aspect of being IRIS Consultant is seeing participants take control of their life to remain independent, healthy, and safe.
What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
Working at the ADRC of Kenosha County has prepared me with the knowledge to problem solve and help individuals remain independent. My role at the Kenosha ADRC gave me the opportunity of working with individuals in the elderly and disabled community. My experience includes working with individuals to identify needs and create plans to meet those needs.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time, you will find me spending time with my family and creating new experiences for my niece.
