Description
I am a social and positive person always wanting to connect with new people. I just graduated and will start working soon as a social worker in a pssychiatric hospital. My hometown is near the alps and a lake where I can spend lots of time in the nature. Being able to snowboard and hike to so many places near me makes me so grateful. I also skate a lot in my free time and have a collective where we push women&queer people in skate&snowboarding and skiing! So doing something for the community and giving back is important to me and fills my heart.
I love exploring and getting to know different cultures, to see how life is like in other places and expand my mind. I appreciate time on my own as well to reflect all my experiences and thoughts.
Excited to see where workaway takes me!

More details about your skills
I just graduated as a social worker and will start working in a psychiatric hospital with children in the summer. I've previously worked in a school for children with special needs, supporting an autistic teen in his daily life, in a psychiatric clinic for children. I also did an exchange year in California and worked as a social worker in a group therapy for mental health with teens. I have always loved working with kids and am excited, that it is part of my profession now. For me personally open communication, transparency and understanding each others perspectives is so important!
I speak Swiss German, German and English fluently. I am half American so English is my mother tongue. In school I've learned French for 8 years and can communicate with people.
I love animals too and have worked in a dog and cat shelter for some weeks in the past.
I would say I'm a quick learner and am open to lots of different jobs- I like a challenge!!
