My main experience in early childhood education is with infants and toddlers at New Horizon Academy, where I developed a love for observing the curiosity children have about all aspects of life. Outside of my passion for early childhood education, I enjoy reading a variety of genres. I love spending time with my family and friends, and exploring all the beautiful scenery Minnesota has to offer!
