Summary
Passionate and dedicated, I am a 22-year-old professional who discovered my calling in the special needs field. With a strong desire to make a positive impact on others' lives, I am particularly drawn to working with children. I approach every task with an outgoing and friendly demeanor, striving to be an effective role model. While naturally kind and social, I also possess the ability to adapt to different situations, even if it means being a little shy at times. Building strong relationships comes naturally to me, as I effortlessly connect with individuals from anywhere.
