Matthew Reynolds

Honest and hard working employee ready to undertake the role of Disability Support Worker and demonstrate skills learned through educational training, personal counseling, and self-reflection to motivate, encourage and help those with disabilities overcome obstacles and to live fulfilling lives.

My life hasn’t always been a walk in the park as some might have it, but I believe this has given me certain advantages in areas of my life that others may not have. For example, through past pains and rejection I have learnt to be self-sufficient in what I do. I've learnt not to solely rely on others in order to get a job done. I know that if I want something done right, I will usually have to do it myself. Despite this, I do consider myself to be a good team player, and I do work well with others. I am a friendly and forgiving individual and realize that we are all human and we all, at times, make mistakes.

If you hire me, I can guarantee you will have someone working for you with dedication, a heart to see the best in people, someone who isn't afraid to speak up when needed, a well-rounded individual that wants what is best for people, and someone who carries a peaceful presence wherever I go.

I understand the importance of Education and the great opportunity it is to be Employed and to Work. I think for a long time I took this for granted and felt sorry for myself because of the problems I once faced. During the period of 2012 till recently, this year (2024), I used to battle Depression and Anxiety on a regular basis, and I use to use this as an excuse for why I didn't feel capable of working. However, since earlier this year, through counseling and self-reflection I've come to a much better place in my life and have realized I was the only one holding myself back. I’ve learnt many things about myself and hope I can use the skills I've learnt to help others who may be going through similar situations. Honestly, going through the trials of life has only made me more empathetic and compassionate towards others, and makes me want to see others succeed in life and be the best versions of themselves. I’m looking for an opportunity to demonstrate my work ethic and my abilities and hope that whoever is reading this, would be willing to give me such an opportunity. I believe if you’re willing to give me a chance you may be surprised by what you’ll discover and will be grateful you didn't pass up on me.
