Summary

Compassionate, grounded, and experienced in supporting individuals with disabilities and behavioral challenges. I bring over six years of direct care and instructional support, including one-on-one and small group learning, behavior management, and supervision. I respond to crisis calmly, guide children through sensory overwhelm with care, and advocate for those facing systems that often overlook them. Seeking to contribute these strengths to the Educational Assistant – Special Education role at Patrick Lynch Elementary, where safety, accessibility, and student-centered support are the priority.
