writing, Mental Health Promoter and reading

I am passionate about mental health and love working with children from different backgrounds and with diverse qualities. I see the uniqueness in every child and individual. Every individual I have had the opportunity to work with is special and I do not take it for granted when given the opportunity to be a part of their growth.

The writing I engage in includes research writing, report writing and and progress reports.

I enjoy reading legal materials, reading local and international news online and story books to clients who find it interesting.
