"During my time at Brevard, as Criminal Justice major I acquired many skills. Those skills consisted of leadership, inspiring youth to be better, the ability to collaborate, work with agencies and discuss solutions to best serve families, conflict-resolution and decision making. I also learned how to hear all sides and discuss possible resolutions and making sound decisions for recommendations for families. These skills have helped me stand out and get to the point I am at now."
