About

I have had several years of experience working with young children and their families. I have spent the majority of those years working with young children with special needs. I enjoy finding creative ways to engage children in learning activities and to help parents to understand their child's unique learning styles. I look forward to expanding my experiences to explore new ways of reaching students and families to instill a love of learning.
