Teacher

I’m currently a college student at San José State University, majoring in Early Childhood Education. My long-term goal is to earn my teaching credential and become an elementary school teacher. I’ve always had a passion for working with young children and feel grateful to be supporting their growth, learning, and development during these important early years.

I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. I also bring three years of experience working with infants and toddlers, which has helped me build a strong foundation in nurturing care, early learning, and responsive teaching.

When I’m not in the classroom, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, friends, and boyfriend. Some of my favorite things to do include spending time at the beach, trying new foods and restaurants, and attending special events like concerts and soccer games. I’m also a coffee lover and enjoy exploring new coffee shops. Overall, I love a good weekend adventure! 

I truly believe learning happens everywhere, not just in school, and I bring that same sense of curiosity and joy into my teaching every day.
