education
​​
I graduated as a Health and Social Services Assistant in 2015. Ever since, I have gained experience in assisting people with physical or intellectual deficiencies or diminished autonomy. I support people with a mobility disability, a hearing, speech or vision impairment or other incapacity. I also work with people with mental health problems or autistic spectrum disorder.
​
​
My academic degrees in human sciences contribute considerably to the quality of the care and services that I provide. My knowledge in psychology allows me to provide quality care to people affected by mental disorders. I am capable of guiding a person and his family through difficult moments. As a social and cultural anthropologist, I can assist people from different origins and cultural backgrounds and help them integrate into Quebec society.
