SUMMARY 
In 2015 I began a new job as an educational assistant at Patrick Henry Middle School. I quickly realized 
that this was a real passion and began the pursuit of a bachelor's degree in Special Education/Elementary 
education. Over the last 3+ years, I have had an opportunity to learn not only from my awesome 
professors, but some amazing teachers as well. This combination has offered me a chance to build 
relationships and experience while learning and applying new strategies in the classroom every day.
