About Austin

I believe interaction with people is the most important activity someone has. I truly enjoy intra-personal communication. The one-on-one aspect creates a drive for a deepening bond with anyone needing care services. I have experience with elderly and 16-25-year-olds. My personality allows me to connect with different cultures, ideas, and age groups with ease. I enjoy learning history through the experiences of other people. Making a difference in someone's life is why I choose sociology as my first bachelor's degree; learning about human interaction with one another helped me attain my desire to help people. The biggest personal achievement was when I won the counselor of the year award.
