Hello! My name is Caitlin and I am a Biology Masters Student at VCU. I have been babysitting and nannying since I was about 13 (I’m 24 now!). I’m the oldest of six and I’ve been living between Richmond and my hometown, Virginia Beach, since 2019. I am a 2022 VCU alum and I returned to VCU fall of 2023 to continue my education. I am working on my thesis through the VCU Coastal Plant Ecology Lab where I study dune grasses and coastal ecosystems. In my free time I enjoy hiking, silversmithing, gardening, and yoga. I am passionate about education and childcare and am looking to help families when I can.
