Meet Maria

  • Speaks Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hello! My name is Maria, and I am passionate about working with students and supporting their growth and development. I hold a Bachelors of Arts in Political Science with a minor in Chicanx & Latinx Studies from St. Edward’s University, where I have been honored as a Ronald E. McNair Scholar. I have extensive experience as an after-school teacher, where I loved creating engaging and inclusive lesson plans tailored to each student's needs. My work as a legislative intern allowed me to delve into educational policies, further fueling my dedication to making a positive impact on students' lives. Fluent in Spanish, I have volunteered with various organizations, helping immigrant and refugee families navigate their new environments. In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and participating in community service projects. I am excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to support your family and help your children thrive!
