Summary
I graduated with my bachelors in Africana studies and a minor in addiction studies in June 2022. I have a passion for working with children. I think it is the upmost critical to provide genuine support in any form to help young minds become their best self they can be for the future. I would consider myself to be a motivated individual with problem-solving skills and a great desire to build relationships filled with growth and inspiration.
