A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a student graduating from Vanderbilt in December and hoping to move to Maine soon after. I have short term experience nannying one child, spent a full summer teaching/leading equestrian camp, and have spent every summer since then helping with at least one week of summer camp. This past summer I was a field instructor for a therapeutic wilderness program, leading adolescents and young adults for 8 day on 6 day off shifts in the woods. I'm excited to meet you and your kids!

A little bit about me

I love spending my time doing things that bring comfort, creativity, and connection. Baking and cooking are some of my favorite ways to unwind and express myself—there’s something so satisfying about creating something delicious from scratch. I also enjoy getting lost in a good book or diving into my own writing, whether it’s journaling, storytelling, or simply capturing a moment. Museums, cozy coffee shops, and new restaurants are some of my favorite places to explore; I love discovering new flavors and ideas. I share my home with my two black cats, Remy and Juno, who add a lot of charm and mischief to my days. When I really want to feel at peace, I go swimming or spend time by the ocean—there’s nothing like the sound of waves to reset everything.
