Hello! My name is James and I'm a social worker who is passionate about serving people with disabilities. I currently work with families in the Seattle/Eastside area who need some extra help to support a family member with special needs, whether at home or out in the community. I love to provide companionship, role-modeling, social/emotional support, life skills development, activity partnership and much more, and to do it in a way that's fun and engaging. I have a masters degree in social work and over 10 years of experience working in the disability field, so I've seen a lot and worked with people of all backgrounds and challenges. Thanks for reading my post. I look forward to connecting with you!

    James is wonderful with our student. He is gentle and patient, and instantly put us both at ease with his demeanor. We are looking forward to him working with us for a long time.
