I have always loved caring for and working with children. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old, and since my passion for kids and, in particular, children's entertainment, has grown. As a freshman at NYU, I worked closely with a pair of delightful twins who taught me as much about life as I (I hope) taught them, and I volunteered with the New York International Children's Film Festival. From there, I learned that my true inner passion was in creating a joyous and safe place for kids to learn there is no better person to be but themselves. In pursuit of this, I interned at TeenNick and was a Camp Counselor and Horseback riding instructor.

I try to live life with curiosity, happiness, and the ability to laugh at myself, and for that reason I find time with my younger counterparts to be incredibly rewarding and just plain fun! I tend to have a lot in common taste wise with kids as well. Not only do I love horses, but also Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus, High School Musical, ICarly, and, of course, Justin Bieber (I even saw Never Say Never in 3D)!
