About
My name is Bayli Magnuson and I am currently a Junior at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse. I am also taking classes at the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point to get my Child Life classes to be certified. I transferred from the University of Wisconsin - River Falls after finding out my passion was to be a Child Life Specialist. I have worked with many age groups and fell in love with children. I have always wanted to be in a helping profession and child life felt right to me. I am studying Therapeutic Recreation for my undergraduate degree which is a stepping stone to get Child Life classes I need to get accepted into my internship. I am excited to see what the future holds.
