Summary

I am a very enthusiastic education student with many years of experience in taking care of children. Since high school I have known I wanted to be an elementary teacher. I love working with kids and want to be the role model, teacher, and supportive adult that I never had. I have lots of experience working with neurodivergent students and have a lot of knowledge in that area. I strive to have a positive impact on children's lives and want to ensure all of them know how much potential they have. I have over 30 education credits and disability studies credits and am currently in an integrated masters program. I am also in the International Education Honors Society and am working towards becoming a full time elementary teacher.
