From the time I was born to when I graduated from high school my mother had an early childhood education center that she operated in our home. I remember coming home to "Francesca's Learning Center" everyday after school and assisting my mother in teaching and interacting with children from infant age to 6 years old. It was during this time in which I developed a passion for working with children and better understood the joys that came from this endeavor. Over the years I have taught Sunday school to a group of children 6 to 9 years old. I have coached a cheerleading squad for girls who were between 10 and 13 years old. I have volunteered for the Youth Special Olympics. I have volunteered at Texas Children's Hospital where I entertained and provided company to children undergoing Dialysis. Presently, I am involved in Knox Achieves, which is a program that allows me to mentor High School Seniors who are preparing to embark on their college careers. I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee with my Bachelors of Science in Biology and I am currently a graduate student at UT. I am working on my Masters of Education and my certification in teaching students with mild to moderate disabilities. I plan to become a Middle School Biology teacher!
