What I'm looking for

I seek a student-focused role where I can provide one-on-one support, assist teachers, use data skills, and contribute to a collaborative, organized school environment.

I am a reliable paraprofessional with extensive experience supporting students from early childhood through high school, including special needs and one-on-one interventions. I combine classroom assistance, data entry, and strong communication skills with a calm, detail-oriented approach to student care and instructional support.

My background also includes quality-control and factory roles, library support with Microsoft Word and Excel, and six years as a cake decorator managing customer orders and inventory. I hold an Associate of Applied Sciences from Le Cordon Bleu and ISBE Paraprofessional and Food Manager certifications, and I consistently prioritize student well-being, organization, and teamwork.
