Meet Megan

Hi! My name is Megan, and I'm currently on summer break from my full-time job as a School Psychologist. I just finished my third year as a School Psychologist. Previous to that I was an elementary-level teacher (I taught 2nd grade for three years, and 4th grade for one), and a program leader at an autism resource agency in Evanston called Have Dreams. I have many years of experience in the education and childcare fields. Before starting my professional career, I had several babysitting jobs. I also worked as a camp counselor with young kiddos, and a summer school teaching assistant with students with special needs. I also have young nieces, nephews, and other family members who I love spending time with and helping their parents as much as I can. My experience in the field of education has prepared me to work in any environment; especially places where quick Read more thinking and problem solving are necessary. I am highly motivated, self-starting, and take pride in everything I do. I am very responsible and always hold high expectations for myself and others. I never approach a task without putting in 100%.
