Hello, I'd love to offer my services out to those families in need. I worked with Best Buddies for 3 years and then went on to volunteer with AbilityTree for 2. Both programs work with disabled children. During this time I would help teach, play, cook, and clean with the kids. AbilityTree also ran events for seniors and two summer camps for kids (about 4-7) and teens (about 12-17). I also have 2 younger nephews, one with ADHD, who I hold near and dear to my heart. I myself have autism, but that's why I have always been drawn towards working with kids with disabilities, and I have never had issues. I and other staff have also noticed the unique perspective my disability gives me. It is a lot easier to address a meltdown when you know why it is happening! I also have two lip piercings, a septum (nose ring), and a few ear piercings. I wanted to clarify that I am absolutely willing to replace all jewelry with clear substitutes so it is unnoticeable.
