Flexible and adaptable: Comfortable working in dynamic school environments and remote community contexts.
Organized and accountable: Maintains strong documentation, follow-through, and professional reliability.
Self-aware and reflective: Engages in ongoing learning and reflective practice related to cultural safety and trauma-informed care.
