I was an active volunteer at Best Buddies McMaster Chapter so I have worked with all ages and types of needs, and had placement settings in Autism classrooms, and an ABA clinic. For three summers I was employed with Community Living Hamilton as a summer student respite support worker at a Cottage where I was in charge of medication administration, transportation, cooking, cleaning and care work.
