I've gained numerous experiences with people of varying needs including but not limited to three years with the Spectrum Project ( a Saturday morning program with k-12 students of varying needs with drama, movement, music and art experiences), field experiences offered through my university, and teaching art classes in partnership with Northstar Services ( a day program for adults of varying needs). I bring patience, empathy and a lot of fun to any experience and I thoroughly enjoy getting to know people. After a few years of teaching, I intend to get my masters in special education with an emphasis in emotional and behavioral disorders.

    Audrey cares for our son with special needs and does a wonderful job. She is very patient and does a great job with a guy that's not always open to doing things. She takes him out to do activities in the community, does art projects with him, encourages him to do his chores, etc. She is very kind and even puts up with our dog! Love her!
