I grew up in Tucson and I am 23 years old. I have worked with kids younger than me from the age of 13 teaching dancing, till I was 21. I fell into the special Ed field in 2014 and I have loved every minute ever since. I love to laugh and tell jokes, but I also am a bit of a stickler about rules and being respectful, kind, and hardworking. I am in my second year of teaching special ed as a certified teacher and it has taught me an immense amount of things that I am looking forward to carrying over to my following step in my path!
