About Juniper

Hi! My name is Juniper . I'm a recent graduate planning to attend the University of Oregon this fall to study political science and pre-law! I graduated this last May as a valedictorian and additionally was a commencement speaker I've been working in the childcare industry for the last four years. I began working as a preschool teachers assistant at a day care in 9th grade. My role included lesson planning, teaching, and nourishing our students. Through my work as a teachers assistant I learned valuable skills in early childhood development, cultivating relationships with students and parents, and communication. Truthfully as a teacher's assistant my favorite part was being with children from infancy to preschool graduation day. While the professional child care industry has treated me well, I miss the intimate relationships I was able to build while caring for their children!
