Enthusiastic and compassionate aspiring elementary teacher with a strong foundation in community-based education and student-centered instruction. Recently graduated from Mount Saint Mary's University with a B.A. in Liberal Studies and have completed all requirements for the Multiple Subject Credential, awaiting the result. I believe that true learning begins with strong, trusting relationships, and I make it my mission to understand each child's emotional and academic needs so they feel seen, valued, and empowered. My experience in diverse classrooms has strengthened my belief that every child deserves a safe, inclusive space where they can thrive not only as students, but as whole individuals. I am dedicated to building a classroom culture rooted in empathy, equity, community-based values, and a genuine love for learning.
