A little bit about me

I have worked with children for many years and have wanted to be a teacher ever since I was in Kindergarten! I grew up in Tigard, OR and graduated from the University of Maine at Farmington in 2023 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education. In my free time I enjoy reading, crocheting, photography, trying new food spots, watching shows, and taking care of my houseplants! I am looking forward to meeting you and your children.

Born and raised in Portland, Oregon! I have been at home most of this last year with my daughter, Aria. I had her in February of 2024. I absolutely love being a mom, and would love to work with more children/infants.
