About me

Since I was first asked, “what I wanted to be when I grow up,” I responded very confidently with “I want to be a teacher.” Teaching others something new and seeing them grow, as a person has always been a passion of mine. I love learning and I thoroughly enjoy seeing children learn and grow. Over the past 8 years, I’ve had absolute pleasure of working with a few families as a babysitter, and have been a dance teacher for children summer camps and high school musicals. I’m a performing artist, so I’m consistently creating and trying new things. Having a lot of energy and organizational skills has led me to work as a teaching artist. I'm full of energy when teaching music, acting, and dance. I enjoy outdoor sports, cooking and laughing. I like to create a fun yet safe environment for the children I’m working with and myself.

I’ve worked with children from infancy to young adulthood. Working with a large age range of children, I have learned hands-on what different age groups need and want. I like to share new activities with children. Whether it’s discovering a new game, expanding on the activities that they enjoy, or having them assists me in preparations for dinner; there will always be something new and exciting. Although I’m very adventurous, I know that all children are different and I can adapt my plans to each child’s personality and needs.

In 5 years, I hope to be...

Happy in whatever path my journey takes me. I dream to be a consistently working actress, sharing it with my family and friends. I hope to open a "holiday home" for college students who age out of the foster care system and need a home to share a holiday meal and celebration with.

Activities & skills I love to teach & share with children...

Are dancing, cooking, and I really enjoy making up games after I learn the child's personality and likes and dislikes.
