I am a caring communicator.

My goal is to make a positive difference in the life of others, to make students feel seen, appreciated and special. I am more of a non-verbal communicator and I believe that through the arts, our attitudes and actions, we can create stronger bonds and bring positiveness to our community.

# data[].attributes.body
I think I am a communicator, as I try to be detailed in my emails and conversations and be mindful of getting across useful information to people. I am also mindful of the words, sentence structures, and tone I use in my emails so there's less chance of misunderstanding.

I am a caring, inquisitive, thinker. I treat everyone the way I would like to be treated - with respect and empathy. I strongly believe in community, and want to make the world a better place. In addition, I genuinely enjoy learning and wish to make subjects more accessible for students, which is why I decided to pursue teaching! Every decision of mine or project I undergo is carefully thought of because I want to feel confident in knowing I have made the best decision for myself and others. It is my first year at ISB, and I couldn´t be more excited!
