I'm a responsible, fun, and loving caregiver who has worked with kids and teens of all ability levels. I have experience as a camp counselor for both neurotypical kids and kids with special needs, and I've loved getting the chance to work with so many different kinds of young people. I also have experience as a tutor in English, Spanish, basic math and science, and SAT/PSAT prep. If you want your daughter or son to learn a special skill like photography, videography, Photoshop, video editing, or sound editing, I would love to help with that as well! My day job is digital media production, and in the past I've assisted in tech/creative workshops for elementary, middle and high school-age children. My favorite part of working with kids and teens is finding out what makes them laugh, smile, or get excited about learning in a way they hadn't felt before.
