My primary philosophy for guiding children is simple—to give respect, understanding, and compassion to every student. I believe we all need these pieces to grow naturally into the best citizens we can be. I also believe that every child deserves to be set up for success, and it is up to educators to provide this for them.
In addition to my Human Development degree, I have training in crisis intervention and worked for two years with parents and their children. I previously worked at an elementary school in Poudre School District as a Para-Professional in the Integrated Services Program.
I've lived a fortunate life, working with people from different societal and cultural backgrounds, and in doing so have learned a lot about tolerance, patience and acceptance. I have two children who are amazing human beings.
