With over 8 ½ years of experience working with children aged 4 to 18, I have gained a deep understanding of their unique needs and challenges. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Family Studies and Human Development from the University of Arizona, providing me with a solid foundation in the field. Currently, I am pursuing a Master of Social Work at Grand Canyon University to further enhance my knowledge and skills. By combining my practical experience and academic expertise, I am equipped to provide comprehensive support and guidance to children and their families.
