Description

I am a young American looking for new experiences and ready to take on any challenge! I have BA in Education, Democracy, & Justice from UC Santa Cruz (California). My most recent jobs have been substitute teaching & working as camp manager at a musical theatre summer camp. In my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, swimming, weightlifting, and socializing with both new and old friends. I'm a patient teacher and I love working with kids and teens, and I'm also ready to try something new. I'm a singer & play decent piano - anything with an artistic or musical touch is right up my alley. I'm looking forward to fully involving myself wherever I end up this year.

More details about your skills

I've been working since I was 15, mostly in childcare. I have extensive experience overseeing large groups of kids ages 4-14 for summer camps and after school programs. I often substitute teach for children age 4-18. I have also been a professional nanny and driver. I have lived on my own and maintained a house or apartment for several years. I love indoor plants, I don't have much experience with outdoor gardens but I'm happy to learn.
