Hired: 2022

Works with clients ages: 5-10 years

I like that every day is a new day. We have schedules but that changes so much, and we can be a part of the school’s activities. The clients are great to work with because they make me laugh and smile so much. And I feel like I get so much support from my team where I’m not afraid to ask questions.

I like the support and understanding from my colleagues and from our directors. Self-care is so encouraged that I’m never afraid to ask for PTO.

I love to spend time with my husband and our 2 cats in my free time. We’ll usually go camping in the summer and go snowmobiling in the winter. I enjoy reading, playing video games and have been recently planning our honeymoon.
