About

I am completing my Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Education Specialties and currently work as an elementary school paraprofessional. My academic and professional experiences have strengthened my passion for supporting children and understanding diverse learning and emotional needs. I plan to pursue a Master’s in Counseling, with a long-term goal of becoming a play therapist who helps children grow and heal through creative, developmentally appropriate approaches. I am committed to lifelong learning and making a positive impact in the communities I serve.

Outside the classroom

In my free time, I enjoy drawing, painting, and singing, as creative expression is an important part of who I am. I also love crafting and designing educational activities for children, as well as reading about psychology and child development to support my future goals in counseling and play therapy. Outside of academics, I value spending time outdoors with my children, exploring new places together, and practicing mindfulness to stay grounded and balanced.
