Hello! I'm currently working in the Darien Public School system with children who have special needs. I couldn't imagine working in any other field. I absolutely ADORE children of all ages with disabilities (or without) and cannot wait to start my masters in occupational therapy. My passion really revolves around helping others and there has not been one child with special needs who I have not fell in love with. There's a special place in my heart for those who need extra support and I'm willing to provide all the help they need.
