Hi, I'm Amiya! I'm from Connecticut and just graduated from Boston University with a Masters degree in Film and Television Studies. While I have a passion for writing about film and television, I also enjoy taking care of children when I have the opportunity. I have been working in childcare as a babysitter, child care staff, and teaching assistant on a volunteer and paid basis since 2016. I have experience with children grades K-6, children with special needs, and children with behavioral concerns. I am kind, responsible, and patient. In my free time, I enjoy reading and playing volleyball. I appreciate you taking the time to read my profile!
