I'm a recent graduate from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA and a fresh transplant to Portland. I'm here getting residency for a year before beginning the Graduate Teachers Education Program at Portland State. I love children and enjoy challenging them to use their minds! I'm laid back but very responsible and dependable. I do well with children of all ages and tend to mesh very well with parents, too!
