I currently am working in the special education department as a paraprofessional for freshman through seniors at Naperville North High School. I have worked in the special education department at a couple different schools the past few years. I have cared for students and children of various ages with very diverse disabilities and needs for their overall care. I am a college graduate with my teaching licence in secondary education, but am interested in going to graduate school to receive my master's in special education. I enjoy my career and what I do; I feel like I am making somewhat of a positive difference everyday, which is extremely gratifying for me. I would love to continue working with children with special needs as a nanny as well.
