NATALIE ORELLANA

With a robust background in law enforcement and as a military service member taking on a role as a drill sergeant, I bring a unique and disciplined perspective to the field of social work. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and a Master's in Forensic Psychology, which have equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of the legal and psychological complexities faced by individuals in marginalized communities.

My career has been deeply rooted in service, leadership, and empowerment, making me well-suited for a role that involves working closely with individuals who need support to overcome obstacles and achieve their personal goals.

My passion lies in mental health, particularly in understanding its profound impact on individuals' lives. This passion drives me to further my education and skills, allowing me to approach my work with a deep, empathetic understanding of the challenges faced by those who need help the most. I am committed to pursuing advanced education in this field, aiming to develop strategies that address the core issues affecting mental health and well-being, particularly in marginalized populations.

As I transition into a social work internship, I am eager to apply my extensive experience and academic knowledge to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. My background in high-pressure environments, combined with my strong leadership and communication skills, positions me as a highly qualified candidate for this program. I am dedicated to fostering positive change, advocating for those who are often overlooked, and contributing to a more just and equitable society.

My commitment to professional development, coupled with my unique blend of skills and experiences, makes me a strong candidate for this internship, with a high probability of success in contributing to the program's goals and outcomes.
