“There are three things I really love about my work. First, it is exciting to work with people from all over the world and learn more about their culture and where they come from. Second, there is no better feeling than when you find a solution for a person who had lost hope. But most importantly, this work allows me to help protect people and keep families together,” she says about her work with LASCO.
