About

Looking to expand my knowledge and make an impact in the lives of others. The past few years I have helped shape the minds of young children from the age of 6 months to 5 years old as a teacher in a daycare. The role of teacher requires more than most understand. Patience, Dedication to each child (as well as their families) and their needs, Compassion, and Understanding are all crucial. I'm focusing on changing my career as an early educator to work towards something more impactful to the lives of others.
