As a dedicated and passionate professional with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Minor in Spanish from Regis University, I bring a unique blend of expertise in child welfare, research, and multilingual communication to my work. My academic journey, marked by a 3.91 GPA, honors thesis research on early attachment and trauma, and active involvement in PSI CHI and the Regis Honors Program, has laid a strong foundation for my career in psychology and child development.I’m currently employed as a Language Assistant through NALCAP where I will be assisting Elementary Science classes in Huelva, Spain. Perviously, I served as a Nanny where I manage the daily schedules, school pick-ups, and academic support for two children. I take pride in contributing to the healthy development of the children under my care and ensuring their well-being.Prior to this, I held positions with the Central Visitation Program in Denver and Englewood, CO. As a Child Welfare Visitation and Parent Coach, I provided trauma-informed supervision and coaching to families navigating child visitations after removals. In my capacity as a Site Supervisor, I managed court-ordered visitations, resolved conflicts, and oversaw scheduling and onboarding, demonstrating my ability to handle complex family dynamics and administrative responsibilities.My commitment to child welfare extends beyond my professional roles. Volunteering with Judi’s House, a center for grief and bereavement, allowed me to support grieving families and gain insights into grief counseling.Research is a cornerstone of my academic and professional journey. As a Primate Researcher at La Selva Biological Research Station in Costa Rica, I designed and conducted observational field research on mantled howler monkeys, focusing on maternal behaviors. This research, alongside my honors thesis on early childhood relationships and resilience, reflects my commitment to understanding and contributing to the field of psychology through empirical study and analysis.My skills extend to certifications such as CITI Certification and RYT 200 Yoga Alliance, proficiency in Spanish, and experience with research methods and behavioral statistics.Looking ahead, I am eager to continue leveraging my background in psychology and child development to make a positive impact. I’m seeking a Masters in Social Work, so I may eventually serve as a LCSW in a school or health care setting. I am always open to connecting with like-minded professionals, sharing insights, and exploring opportunities for collaboration. Let’s connect!
