For the past 18 years, I have worked with children and families of various ages, abilities and from a multitude of cultures. I have supported families, using trauma informed care, to improve school relationships, attendance and collaboration with teachers and families.I am a dedicated, resourceful and goal-driven professional educator. I have a solid commitment to the social and academic growth and development of every student, while supporting the concept that the parent is the number 1 teacher in any child’s life.I am an accommodating and versatile individual with the talent to develop inspiring concepts that will capture and build upon the success of others. Through my previous experiences of working closely with a board, Early Head Start and other professional entities, I believe you can only truly be successful when working as a TEAM towards one commonality, which is truly supporting children and families.
