I have taught special education in both the elementary and 18-21-year-old settings for 12 years working with a variety of disabilities. I worked in group homes and as a respite care provider for 5 years through college and started a dance program for kids with special needs during that time as well. I love all people with diverse needs and feel that we learn more from them than they do from us.
