Hi! I' m Shannon, and I am 25 years old. I am an occupational therapist and I work at an outplacement school for students with developmental disabilities and behavioral challenges. I volunteered for an extended school year program for kids with special needs (pre-K-8th grade) for about 7 years, and I also worked at a summer camp for kids with special needs (K-8th grade). I have been working as a PASS worker for about 2 years now. I am CPR/first aid certified, and I also have my own car. I am a very patient individual with a special passion for children with special needs. I look forward to hearing from you!
