Summary
I am a positive and passionate person who has engaged with youth in both a classroom and camp setting. I strive to create an environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds with varying needs and abilities can thrive. I have experience engaging in conflict resolution in a restorative-based, trauma-informed manner, as well as experience leading students through classroom and summer camp activities. I also strive to build positive relationships that allow campers or students to feel safe asking for help, expressing their thoughts, and being actively involved in activities.
