I have had an interest in working with individuals with special needs for my entire life. I began working with adults with special needs in middle school through SPHERE of Ridgefield. I then began to work at Ridgefield's extended school year program where I worked with many students with disabilities. We worked with the students on academics as well as social and emotional skills throughout the program. I am passionate about working with individuals wth special needs because I truly believe every individual is capable of positively contributing to society if given the opportunity. would love to help out!
