I worked as part of a project for coding speeches given by Arabic speakers, and speeches in Arabic, for populist rhetoric. I also researched the leaders of the Middle East and their speeches while in office. Speeches often required background knowledge to be fully understood. I translated portions of the speeches in Arabic for coding purposes. I worked as part of a project for coding speeches given by Arabic speakers, and speeches in Arabic, for populist rhetoric.

I improve the quality of life for disabled adults by teaching them how to participate in their lives to the fullest extent possible. I do this by helping them budget their time and money, learn how to cook, how to socialize with roommates and co-workers, assist them in hygiene and medication, all the while maintaining a safe and positive atmosphere.
