Summary

Professional experience with a proven record of working in the community with a broad range of diverse groups including youth, children, vulnerable adults and older people. In addition, my skills and training to date enable me to work with complex presenting issues that require discreet and informed interventions. I have highly developed skills in group facilitation and peer mentoring and I regularly deliver Intercultural Healthcare awareness workshops to groups of mixed age adults in community settings. I am diligent and professional in my dealings with people and in my work with a flexible approach to responding to demands arising in busy working environments. I can build rapport easily and work well in a team. I am a fluent speaker – English, Italian, Edo, Urhobo and basic Spanish. I am proficient in IT applications – MS Word, SPSS, Excel, Access and Social media for business. As a community-based health worker, I have experience in report writing and filing sensitive data with due emphasis on data protection guidelines.
