During this time, she also served as the Social Work Intern for the Boys and Girls Club of North Central Illinois where she supported youth development through the implementation of Social Emotional Learning activities and gained hands-on experience working with children and adolescents.

She is currently pursuing a Master of Social Work through Aurora University and is excited to continue developing my clinical skills through her internship with the Department of Youth and Family Services.
