I graduated from Baldwin Wallace University with a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish Literature/Language and Political Science and with a minor in Legal Studies. After graduation, I spent the last two years serving with City Year Cleveland as a Student Success Coach. In this role, I supported a Partner Teacher, in a 4th and 5th grade Science and Social Studies classroom for my first year and a 4th and 5th grade ELA and Math classroom for my second, through in-classroom assistance as well as additional tutoring outside of the classroom. These tutoring sessions were mostly small groups, however, I did have the opportunity to work with individual students often. I also facilitated extra preparation sessions for Ohio State Testing (OST) for my 4th- and 5th-grade students. I love to learn and I love to make learning fun for students, especially in ways that feel meaningful and interesting to them. In my free time, I like playing video games, practicing my Spanish on Duolingo, re-reading books from my childhood, and spending time with my two cats, Rhubarb and Strawberry.
