Hi! My name is Sarah Bozymski and I am a 20-year-old rising senior at UNCW studying Elementary Education with a concentration in Behavioral Studies.

I am available Monday-Friday pretty much every week in the summer except July 2-12, and on some occasional weekends as well. I am also happy to provide references! Please reach out! :)
