I have 3+ years experience in youth development spanning ages 5-18, including 1.5 years experience as Teen Program Coordinator for the Boys and Girls Club of Fairbanks, Alaska. Maintained Alaskan CNA licensure 2010-2020. I have been trained bi-annually in first aid/CPR and AED emergency certification but am due for renewal; happy to renew training in the event of accepting a position. I hold a Bachelor's in Fine Arts from the University of Alaska Fairbanks and I love sharing my art supplies and teaching art skills with youth. I began my graduate studies in Fall of 2019, studying Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy at Antioch University. I am a year-round full time student, with my class times (and thus my babysitting availability) shifting on a quarterly basis.
