June 2022- Met with Mallory (Owner/President of VaryAbility), whom I had E-mailed asking to complete an Internship for my Associate Degree in Human Services.

January 2025- PotentialCareers was fully authorized and ready to start supporting and coaching job seekers with Preparing, Securing, and Retaining meaningful employment.  I love teaching people how to do things and coaching them to improve their independence, to the best of their ability.
