I am 27 years old and am currently taking a bit of a career sabbatical. I graduated from Uconn in 2010 where I majored j. Anthropology. Since then I managed a retail store for 2 years and have spent the last 4 years working at an agency that supports individuals with special needs. My job there was heavily focused on being attentive and observant as the individuals I supported frequently were unable to express their needs or discomfort verbally. I also have a 3 year old niece who I have the great fortune of being very close to. I have cherished the opportunity to be an active part in her development process. I also have extensive experience in babysitting and am CPR and First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross. I would love to speak with you more about my qualifications!
