"I have worked as a substitute teacher in the public school system for one year. I have worked as a paraprofessional, a one-on-one aid, and as an instructor in a local preschool for the past 2.5 years. My current classroom is based on the Easter Seals STAR program for students diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum. As the instructor of this classroom I focus on language skills, cognitive skills, and functional routine.

Outside of the classroom I coach youth soccer and I am a local 4-H leader. I have coached in the spring and fall for the past four years. I have a B.A. in communications and sociology, and an MAT in Early Childhood Education P -4."
