Hobbies

As a new mother, I enjoy spending as much time as I can with my 1 year old daughter. With her, I'd take her along with me during errands and reading books. As much as I enjoy quality time with my own child, my experience in my professional life with young children and young adults has led me to be highly motivated in exploring many aspects of child development. For some time, I have grown a desire in collaborating with others to assist in creating and improving skills that allow individuals to become functional individuals in society. I very much enjoy facilitating my interest in fostering well-rounded and functional lives through the scope of those who require excessive encouragement, so that they can gain confidence as well.
