A little bit about me

Hello, My name is Cynthia Perez. I am a Mexican-American college student; currently enrolled at Albion College as a senior.

I am double majoring in Spanish and Psychology. My passion for helping kids is huge. I would love to assist children with special needs that have been mentally, emotionally, and physically abused.

I love working with children; I previously worked at Windy City Field house were I coordinated birthday parties for children from ages 2-12. I would organize the parties plus initiate all the party games for the birthday boy/girl.

I have personal experience with working with children with special needs. One year ago, I worked for a woman with a baby girl that has autism. I love children and I do not discriminate against any. Growing up as an older sibling, I had to take care of my younger siblings, and that definitely helped me become more nurturing, patient, and caring for children.

Therefore, I am hopeful that I get hired to help myself pay my personal expenses!
