Intiallty, Iβve worked with children since I was in middle school. Working with those with special needs and still a huge contributor with best buddies/special Olympics who I hold dearly to my heart. In addition, in 2020 I start working in the medical field with pediatrics (specifically newborns-toddlers) and in the future possibly pursuing as a family nurse practitioner!
