About Emma

I would describe my personality as outgoing, responsible, and creative. I'm currently a graduate student in architecture school and I love to craft, doodle, and create. I like working with kids because it's an amazing opportunity to remember to just have fun. I've spent the last few years working professionally in the field of architecture, and I miss the ability to just be silly and creative in the way that kids are naturally. I started working with kids when I was in high school. I grew up on a block where almost every household had small children. This meant they all needed a babysitter and that was me! I spent 6 years regularly babysitting/nannying 4 families. In my spare time, I like to draw, run, hike, crochet, and do anything that involves just being outside! I moved to Portland so I could spend more time outside and go to graduate school, and the city has allowed me to do so much of what I love!
