Personal and professional info
I've dedicated my life to learning, setting goals, and following my dreams. I've raised a family and my family has always come first but I also believe in people finding their purpose in life. Life is hard but it is also beautiful. I let myself feel it all. Hold on tight to the people you love and tell them you love them. It's not selfish to take time for selfcare and growth. It is when we take care of ourselves, that we learn to love ourselves and then share our love with others.

to my own pain
look for the beauty in this world

into beautiful creations

Rockaway Borough Elementary School
Paraprofessional​
2007-2020
I worked with children in grades pre-k through 3rd grade. Assisting the class as a whole during lessons and accompanying the children to specials. Working in small groups to assist, teach, and reinforce the lessons. Assisting and working with children, one on one, with social growth, academics and also physical limitations. When working with the younger children, I would focus on social and emotional needs. When working with older children, I would be there for them to answer questions and help them to understand and follow through with their lessons. The children taught me just as much as I taught them. I learned from them very valuable lesson of living in the moment.
