"Hey there! I'm Jessica, and my journey in education started back in 2017 when I worked as an educational assistant for pre-K students. It didn't take long for me to realize my passion for working with children and watching their growth unfold. I became a certified K-12 substitute teacher while studying at Western Governors University, culminating in my B.A. in Elementary and Special Education in 2022.

While serving as a substitute teacher, I embarked on a journey of continuous growth through engaging with students of diverse ages and academic backgrounds. This experience honed my skills in flexibility, adaptability, and creativity, as I navigated various educational settings, often as a requested long-term substitute.
