I am honor very honor to be able to assist in picking up, gathering and distribution of food supplies and delivery to families in need in our community. During the Covid-19Pandemic.

 I am very humble as well to be given the opportunity of contributing in keeping the Miller Avenue School clean and sanitized during the pandemic. 

I had the pleasure to work during that difficult time. Protecting the amazing staff and bright students at Miller Avenue School. Even though it was for a short time. I treasured everyday how I was able to serve each and everyone at Miller Avenue School. I hope I am given the opportunity to serve each of you at Baldwin Union Free School District.  I needed to step away from work from Eastern Suffolk BOCES as the building interpreter at Gary Bixhorn Technical Center to take care of my daughter that needed to have emergency surgery. Her recovery was going to be a difficult journey.  Becoming a stay-at-home parent isn't always voluntary. “Raising three children is no easy feat, but I'm glad I was able to take the time I did. Now, I'm looking forward to getting back to the workforce and making a difference everyday will always be something  I'm passionate about."

I have extensive experience providing simultaneous interpretations in small and large group settings for over 10 years. I am fluent in Spanish.
