Summary

I am a recent graduate of Texas State University with a bachelor's degree in Public Relations. I have a ton of experience in the service industry which has fostered my strong hospitality and customer service skills as well as personable communication skills. I have decided to pursue teaching because I have always felt drawn to it. I have always admired teachers, and some of the people I felt most inspired by growing up were my favorite teachers. I am currently working toward getting certified to teach 4th-8th grade core subjects with 240 Certification. I am so excited to be on this journey. I believe I will be an awesome teacher.
