Hi there! I’ve been helping out close friends and families in my community with their kids since I was a teenager, and I took my experience further and worked as a summer camp counselor in Wisconsin! That experience was one of the best times of my life, and I love being able to connect with our youth and support their creativity through art and open discussion! Now, I’m tutoring young girls and helping them adjust to life during a pandemic. With the school year coming to an end, I hope I can find another family to help while I work on my graduate studies.
