Accomplishments
"My professional foundation is built upon a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a commitment to evidence-based student development. During my time as a substitute teacher at BMES, I successfully managed diverse classroom environments by fostering a culture of mutual respect and proactive engagement. Beyond the classroom, I developed 'The Science of Self,' an innovative project designed to gamify social-emotional learning and help students navigate the complexities of adolescent growth. By combining my academic training in human behavior with my hands-on experience in the classroom, I am prepared to provide any team with a unique, student-centered approach that prioritizes both academic achievement and personal development."
