About Shana

Greetings! I'm Shana, and my approach to caring for children is rooted in advocacy, consent, and demonstrating healthy coping skills to promote resilience and growth. I place a strong emphasis on fostering positive connections, both within the family and with the wider world. Nature, exploration, and mindfulness play significant roles in my life, and I cherish opportunities for creative expression through various activities like reading, playing, board games, and outdoor adventures. Regardless of the challenges, I firmly believe in uncovering moments of hope and happiness each day. This past summer I worked as a coordinator for Trackers Earth, in which I led groups of youth ages 4-14 outdoors to teach them different survival skills, such as fire starting and woodcarving. along with that, we focused on community care, safety, and mentorship. I am currently looking to continue working with and caring for youth as I work towards continuing my education.
