A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Anna and I graduated 2 years ago from Northern Michigan University! Since then, I have been working at a dude ranch as the head wrangler, meaning I am in charge of all the horses. How is this relevant? Well, for kids aged 3-5, we ran a program of activities while their parents were riding. So I took these kids on pony rides and hikes, played with them, and also did arts and crafts. I also have experience as a home health aide, helping clients with personal care, housework and meal prep. I have experience with children with special needs.

I am looking to start work in January, as I am employed until the fall and have a big trip planned in November. I would have fairly open availability. I look forward to hearing from you.
