Experience
Although it has been bit of a struggle for me, education has always been very important to me. When I was in the 5th grade, I was diagnosed with a learning disability and was given an Individual Education Plan (IEP). I have had tutors and understand how children feel when they are struggling. I would like to help children of all ages learn and grow in their education. It is my goal to guide children to be the best students they can possibly be. I can also be an advocate for them and show them that although it may be a struggle, you can do it!

Hobbies
Most of my hobbies are on the creative side. Since the day my parents put a pencil in my hand, I loved the subject of art. In fact, before studying psychology at Brookdale, I was actually a graphic design major. Then, I applied to Caldwell College because it was one of the very few schools that had an Art Therapy program. However, shortly after transferring, I found out that I loved the subject of art as a hobby more than a career. I love to paint, draw, craft, etc. I also like to consider writing as a form of art as well. I have taken creative writing and poetry courses and have written some short stories and poems as well.
