I am a third year student at UCSD majoring in cognitive and behavioral neuroscience and minoring in environmental studies. I was born and raised in San Diego, with a brief period of my childhood spent in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Myself and others would describe me as trustworthy, enthusiastic, patient, humorous, empathetic, dependable, and determined! I also am vaccinated. I have experience tutoring (one-on-one and leading a pod), nannying, and conducting ABA therapy on kids with autism. I grew up and have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, lizards and snakes. I am more than happy to provide references upon request. I love working with children and animals, because they always surprise me in the most wonderful of ways, and leave my heart full of joy!
