I am an educator and an outdoors enthusiast with a passion for helping others. I am a 2023 graduate from Hobart and William Smith Colleges with a double major in Education and Spanish & Hispanic Studies, and a minor in Environmental Studies. I speak English and Spanish and have also completed the TEFL Certificate and the HWS Leads Certificate. I will graduate from the Masters of Arts in Teaching at HWS in 2024 with a dual certification in early childhood general and special education.  In my time at HWS, I created lesson plans for culturally responsive literature used in the tutor program. I was also the co-president of the organization Outdoor Recreation Adventure Program (ORAP) for two years. 

I set a good example and support those around me.

I listen to those who come to me with questions and concerns.

I see each of those whom I lead as individuals.

I look for ways to improve myself and the things for which I am responsible.

I facilitate growth in others.

I encourage creativity and new ideas.

I take the time to appreciate the little things, showing gratitude and engaging in reciprocity. 

I am always accepting, inclusive, and aware of my privilege. 

I always leave a place better than I found it.
