Your instructor

With over a decade of dedicated experience working within the group home setting for both adults and children, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and heartfelt dedication to the “Group Home (Adult/Children)” course I teach. My journey began as a direct care staff member, which provided me with invaluable insights into the day-to-day challenges and victories experienced by residents. This hands-on experience quickly turned into a lifelong passion for understanding the unique needs of individuals in group homes, and I have since taken on roles that span supervisory, managerial, and advocacy positions within this vital sector of care.

As an educator in this field, my connection to the material is deeply personal and professional. I've not only worked alongside individuals with diverse needs but have also been instrumental in implementing policies that enhance their living environments and personal growth. My approach to teaching is one of compassion, respect, and continuous learning, as I believe that these are the cornerstones for creating a supportive and successful group home environment. Each class is a new opportunity to share my passion and knowledge with those who are as eager as I am to make a positive impact in the lives of others, ensuring that every voice within a group home setting is heard and valued.
