Red Door Assistant Teacher
MY PATH TO TEACHING
I have a Cosmetology certificate from SBCC and four years of experience as an Instructional Assistant, Behavioral Support Assistant, and Teacher Assistant. My nephew, diagnosed with autism, inspired me to pursue education with patience, understanding, and individualized support.
WHAT SHAPED ME
Every family and student I’ve worked with at SYVFS has taught me the importance of inclusion, support, and collaboration. Working alongside incredible colleagues has helped me grow as both a teacher and an individual.
WHY SYV FAMILY SCHOOL
I love being part of a team that supports one another and fosters a caring, family-like environment.
IN MY CLASSROOM
I hope students see my passion for teaching and my love for working with children.
FAVORITE CHILDREN’S BOOK
Lord of the Flies
OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL
I enjoy kayaking, coloring, puzzles, and binge-watching movies
