Accomplishments
I graduated high school in 2019 and I knew kids were my passion. I have always loved working with kids and watching their little minds learn and adapt and see all their new skills from learning and engaging in what i am showing and teaching them. My son has autism, and he is capable of doing amazing things just like any other child. I have done and will continue to do my best to make sure every child has the same opportunities despite a diagnoses. I would say my biggest accomplishment is putting all my energy, faith, wisdom, and love into the career path I have chosen to shape the minds of kids and prepare them for their future no matter their age or diagnoses.
Certification
My diploma from Lowndes High School, and my Associates of Science of Education from South Georgia State College. I begin working on my Bachelors in Elementary Education and minor in Special Education Fall of 2026.
