Hi there! I'm originally from Arizona, but recently moved to Iowa with my husband while he attends graduate school at the University of Iowa. We were just married this summer, which has been such an exciting new chapter for us! I've always loved spending time in Iowa-I grew up visiting family here during the summers-so it feels special to be back. I have a bachelor's degree in biomedical sciences and a master's in occupational therapy. I currently work as an OT, but I'm hoping to find a second job where I can use my skills, energy, and love for helping others during my free time.
I am a special education high school teacher and varsity soccer coach. Kirsten was one of my captains her senior year, and she was also one of my classroom tutors. Kirsten is compassionate, intuitive, and friendly. She is a diligent worker and although she can be assertive when necessary, she is willing to sacrifice for the common good. When asked to fulfill a task, Kirsten is reliable. In fact, she can creatively problem solve and often accomplish things more effectively and efficiently than perhaps I would have tackled the task myself. She has such a friendly, warm personality which made the high school students with disabilities trust her immediately. Often times, student-tutors struggle when helping students with special needs because it is so difficult to guide without just giving answers. Kirsten is a natural. Her sense of humor is quick, fun, and appropriate - which is necessary when tirelessly working in special education. She is trustworthy, a born leader, and a team player. Because she is a young lady of integrity, I would recommend her for any position.
