I'm a 26 year old Business Management graduate and former assistant to the Head Chairman of the Business Department at East-West University in Downtown Chicago. I currently live in Medical District near the blue line stop. I'm originally from the northern suburb - Mundelein, IL - lived with my parents, 2 younger siblings (sister: 19yrs & brother: 18yrs), and our dog, Lily. I have babysat ever since I took a babysitting class given by the American Red Cross when I was 12 years old and I have taken care of children of all ages. I have experience with children and adults with disabilities from working at Lambs Farm (completed DSP certification) and Clearbrook. I have over 15 years of music experience with Saxophone, and I could teach how to read music or beginning Percussion/Drums, clarinet, piano, and guitar as well. (I was formerly a music therapy major) I've also given swim Read more lessons to preschoolers at the local community center (I played water polo when I was in high school, local swim team in middle school). I love animals, so I don't mind them at all. (Especially since I am not allergic to anything.) Aside from English, I am fluent in Spanish . I am very outgoing and I enjoy anything music related, movies, art, video games, and having an overall good time. :) -If you would like a copy of my resume, just ask!
