Summary

After graduating from Lindenhurst Senior High School in June 2022, I enrolled at Western Connecticut State University. I am currently half way through my third year majoring in Elementary Education. During my time I completed over 60 hours of observations in Danbury, School District. I strive to work hard and maintain my position on the Dean's List every semester. After my graduation I look forward to a career in elementary school teaching.
