Hello! My name is Christa. I am a lower elementary special education teacher in San Anselmo, CA. I have a degree in Strategic Communication with a minor in Psychology. I began working with kiddos when I was a kid. My career working with kids started in roles as a camp counselor, swim instructor/coach and lifeguard for five years. I then moved on to mentoring and literacy coaching for about a year. Finally, I began as a paraprofessional teaching assistant. Ultimately, paving the way to my current position as a teacher! I am in the process of earning my Masters degree in Education and one day dream of being a school principal! I have cared for infants, groups of 4+, and worked extensively with students who have special needs. I am CPR certified and first aid safety trained annually. Additionally, I am trained in Crisis Prevention Intervention.
