I’ve been a dedicated professional in the healthcare industry since 2017. Working with people as a caregiver provided invaluable experience that I now apply daily in coordinating care for others.

Starting here at DSPC has been both humbling and empowering to be a part of a commitment to optimal support for individuals with I/DD and their families.

I was required to complete 20 hours of volunteer work for a class. This led me to volunteer at a day program for adults with intellectual disabilities. The experience was incredibly fulfilling, as I saw firsthand the positive impact, I could have on someone’s quality of life.

I’m extremely excited and passionate about starting this role as a Pairing Specialist. I love that I get to find the DSP’s that fit what our families need. Nothing warms my heart like calling on a recently paired family and hearing their success stories.
