A little bit about me

In May 2023, I proudly graduated from San Diego State University, a significant milestone that marked the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. During my senior year at SDSU, I embraced the role of a nanny, caring for a 3-month-old baby. This experience was incredibly fulfilling, as it allowed me to develop a deep understanding of early childhood care and the unique needs of infants. Balancing my academic responsibilities with the demands of a full-time nannying, I honed my skills in time management, empathy, and nurturing, which have become invaluable assets in my life.
Seeking new adventures and opportunities, I made a bold move to New York in August 2023. This transition to the bustling city life has been an exciting journey, providing me with a fresh perspective and a plethora of experiences.
