Summary
I have always had a deep passion for working with and engaging with children of all ages. I am extremely passionate about accessibility and advocacy for my students and all of the children I work with - I believe that all children should feel loved, have equitable access to education, and a safe environment while at school and I work hard to ensure this both in and outside of the classroom.
