Hello! I received my bachelors degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2016. I am currently pursuing a master's degree in occupational therapy and plan on becoming a pediatric occupational therapist in the future. In my own personal family, I am the oldest of four children. There is a 10 year age difference between my youngest sister and myself. I helped raise my siblings which was what first got me interested in caring for children. I also worked as an entry level behavior therapist with children who have autism and related disorder for a year. I have 10+ years of caring for children in different settings, such as, babysitting, YMCA, internship at a therapeutic preschool, tutoring, etc. I recently renewed my CPR certification.
