What I'm looking for
I'm currently enrolled in the ABA-approved Paralegal Studies program at Florida Southwestern State College, building on a foundation in legal research, writing, and case documentation. I'm seeking to bring my experience managing complex compliance and high volumes of information and deadlines into the legal field.
At Collier County Public Schools, I worked as a Middle School Special Education Inclusion Teacher and managed IEPs and 504 Educational Plans, student confidentiality, and related deadlines.
My education experience also includes teaching middle school history and working as a Long Term Substitute Teacher K-7. I tracked student test scores and progress on high-stakes state and district assessments.
I hold a master’s degree in Integrated Curriculum & Instruction and a Florida Department of Education Professional License with Middle Grades Social Science and K-12 Special Education endorsements. I speak English, Spanish, and Italian.
