Passionate and Compassionate Support Worker/Teacher with 8 Years of Experience!
| Hi there, My name is Mary and I am a high school English and Indigenous Studies teacher in the Central Okanagan.

Compassionate to improve the quality of life and cater to the specific needs of each individual.
| With over 10 years of experience in the appropriate fields, I am well rounded and confident to improve the quality of life and cater to the specific needs with care and compassion for different individuals. My mother passed away at an early age from a brain tumor. My father shortly after had a stroke. Caring for him and rehabilitating him back into daily routines being the oldest brother was quite rewarding and has made me the compassionate, understanding person I am today. I have a nephew who is Special Needs with Autism. He is my shining light who I care for dearly. He has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Sensory Processing Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I am in a new chapter of my life. I feel it is my duty in life to carry on with the understanding and care of individuals in need. This is what gets me out of bed every morning. This is what I was made to do! It gives me a sense of completion that I am unable to find anywhere else. For any further questions or contact, please do not hesitate to call. Kinds regards, Elliott
