I have a profound passion for working with children and people with disabilities. My commitment is to create a supportive, inclusive environment where people can thrive, grow, and reach their full potential. I am dedicated to advocating for children's needs and ensuring they receive the highest quality of care and education. My mom teaches in special education. From an early age, I was in inclusive classrooms and a peer mentor. My mom taught me that everyone deserves respect and kindness, no matter what. I am new to the Chicago area and looking forward to city life! I grew up in Dubuque, IA and went to college at Viterbo University for Theatre -Acting, where I graduated in May 2024. Families can expect me to be an excellent communicator, a lover of creativity and play, a problem-solver, and a dependable caretaker!
