I have worked in the General Education and Special Education settings in many capacities for the last 5 years. My professional experience began as a Special Education Intern at both the middle and high school levels where I provided academic support to students with and without disabilities. My services in the classrooms continued during my roles as Instructional Assistant and Special Education Teacher, most notably working in a middle school Social Emotional Learning program, providing academic, social, and behavioral support.

I have worked at the elementary and secondary education settings in some capacity, as well as providing services to adults with disabilities in a adult day center.
