A little bit about me

I'm Molly, a graduate student studying Appalachian Studies at Shepherd. I studied Education and Environmental Studies for my undergraduate degree. I grew up babysitting my neighbors and have always been drawn to teaching via play and outdoor exploration.
I lived with a family for the last 4 years and enjoyed spending ample time with their 3 children. When I moved in they were 3, 6, and 9 and now they are 7, 10, and 13-- what a gift to be with them during such wonderful stages of development!
