Summary

Experienced kindergarten teacher with 11 years of fostering young learners' development, now transitioning into new ventures. After relocating to Mexico, I founded and managed a successful candle brand, overseeing both operations and design. Since moving to the U.S. in 2022, I began learning English through an ESL program for adults, provided by the California government, and transitioned to a college program (High Intermediate) in 2024 to further improve my skills.

I am eager to continue learning English by working in an organization that fosters professional growth and language development. Additionally, I am expanding my expertise by pursuing coaching training through an online program from Argentina.

With a blend of educational expertise, entrepreneurial experience, and a commitment to continuous learning, I bring creativity, adaptability, and a passion for personal and professional growth to new opportunities
