Hello! I've been working with Special Ed. for about 6 years now. I've been with a Senior High working in the Special Ed. department. I work with behavior and non-behavior kids. While I've been here and solo jobs, I've worked with kids on vast ends on the spectrum of the autism and special needs scale, from extreme to very mild. Besides music I find a lot of joy in working with special needs kids. I also love animals!
