I am pursuing a career as a school psychologist and, while studying, have worked in roles that provide valuable real-world experience. With my mother being a Special Education teacher, I began working in schools at 18, holding positions such as instructional assistant, permit teacher, and behavioral support team member, as well as working with children with medical needs. This hands-on experience, along with caring for newborns to preteens both in schools and homes, has given me insights beyond the textbooks. I come from a large family, including cousins with ASD, and take pride in being a trusted support for them. Whether with family or work, I aim to create a safe space where children feel supported. I care deeply about their well-being and development and work to instill respect, responsibility, and independence. I'm eager to collaborate with a family that values my insights and dedication to their children's growth!
