I worked as a peer mentor in high school with a variety of special needs kids who went to our school. I worked hands-on with Down Syndrome and autism the most. I also have a really close friend with autism whom I have learned a lot from. I also have two nephews whom I have helped raise. My mother was an in-home daycare provider and also had a child with autism, and the little boy looked up to me a lot growing up and still does. I'm a great person with a lot of energy and patience. I really enjoy making a difference in a child's life.
