For the last 7 years, I have been working with disabled adults. I've worked with all types of disabilities such as Down syndrome, autism, and cerebral palsy just to name a few. Growing up, my mother worked in this field along with caring for elderly and childcare, giving me the opportunity to be in these communities at an early age, as well as having a younger brother who has autism. Being advocate for young adults who need a little extra help is a huge passion of mine. I truly enjoy the time I get to spend, teach, and care for those who need it most.
