Hello there! Here's a little bit about myself. I have recently graduated from Saint Xavier University with a Bachelor's in Arts (2021). My major was Communication Sciences and Disorders, and I am on track to start graduate school in the fall in pursuit of a Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology. I enjoy picnics at the park, indulging my sweet tooth, and practicing yoga. I am a Bilingual speaker (English and Spanish) and love to share my knowledge of my native language with anyone interested. I have volunteered at my local church's VBS (Vacation Bible School) summer program for the past seven years. Although the ministry paused during 2020 due to Covid, I hope we can be back this year. I believe that true learning can only be accomplished when a child is fully engaged in what he is doing. For that reason, I enjoy working alongside families to create an Read more enjoyable, creative, and nurturing environment for the children in my care.
