I recently moved to the area after raising my 4 children in Bend, OR. I left behind a job that I loved dearly as an educational assistant in an ABA program for autistic children. I also taught private swimming lessons out of my home for several years. I am currently substitute teaching here and there. I have volunteered in many capacities over the years which included people of all ages. I am especially interested in helping children and adults learn, grow, and make lemonade out of life's lemons! I love to encourage and inspire people in their uniqueness to experience life to the fullest with positivity and strength. I love to enter into the world of creative play and the outdoors. I am very physically active and enjoy swimming, Pickleball, softball and running. I love being in community and believe in boundaries, mutual respect, and finding an individualized approach to let the children and adults know that they are valued as a one-of-a-kind kid! Let's make lemonade!
