Jaime Parker is the founder of Above 91. She guides teens and young adults, ages 14-24, through transitions.
BECOMING A COACH
Since she was young, Jaime has always wanted to help others. While she was in school herself, she was placed in classes based on demographics, where she started assisting and encouraging classmates. Years later, when she had her own children, she started seeing things in the school system that she didn’t like, which led to her becoming a counsellor. Her desire to “help kids become good adults” led to her forming her company and offering her services to the public.
