About Me


I have been working in the educational field for sevenyears as a teacher assistant here at TECCS. I have experienceworking with children of all age groups and diversebackgrounds. I always knew I would work withchildren. After I graduated from college, I entered thefield with the motivation to find ways to contribute myknowledge. In 2019 I received my Masters inEducation and certification in school counseling. Mygoal while pursuing my degree was to be able tocreate an environment where children feel safe toshare things without judgment or censorship. I thinkthat it is important for a child’s growth to be able toarticulate their feelings and thoughts within healthyboundaries. I want to be able to connect with thechildren on a level where they know that I am activelylistening and open to their ideas. My objectives are tocreate a welcoming, positive, interactive and safeenvironment for everyone. To give guidance and provide support onpersonal, social, and psychological problems. Themost important goal for me is to look back on myaccomplishments and know that I have a made adifference in the lives I encounter.
