Throughout my different job roles, I have found a love for caring for those apart of the special needs community. I am a recent KSU grad, attending KUMC's Occupational Therapy Doctorate program next fall, so being a classroom para, at-home caregiver, sensory swim teacher for ASD students, and now working part-time with the Down syndrome population, have been incredible opportunities to further my experience and passion for those who have special needs. I have experience with all different ages and levels of abilities, and I am eager to help a family out while I save up for OT school! Looking for late afternoons/evenings after my usual shift is over around 3:15 p.m. :)
