My name is Alyssa and I am wife to an officer in the United States Marine Corps. We are currently living in Okinawa, Japan (for our second time!) I am 28 and have to kiddos and work in management at a child developmental center on base. ]]> 2018-03-06 01:49:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238422956 ajohns027 https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238424008 I have worked many years in early childhood education. Before moving across the country and then the world with my husband, I worked at MAAC Project in Southern California. Currently I am in a leadership position for where I currently work and am loving the opportunity to grow adults as they assist in growing little people!

I obtained my BA in Child Development online as I had our kiddos, supported my husband's deployments, and moved about 7  times while working full time. You could say that I am a master of multi-tasking]]> 2018-03-06 01:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238424008 ajohns027 https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238424441 I have a variety of things I would love to do in the future. Partly because we are always moving, the job opportunities can be difficult, and I have to do with what's available; partly because I am so passionate about various parts of early childhood education. I don't necessarily see myself going back into a classroom but perhaps being an educational specialist/curriculum trainer. I have a small current goal to be a director of a center here in Okinawa. ]]> 2018-03-06 01:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238424441 ajohns027 https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238428638 As a child adopted out of foster care at the age of 13 and a child that frequented Head Start programs, I am highly passionate about children who face trauma and the effects that it can have in their life. However, when it came to chose an area of specialization, I chose Organizational Leadership and Change. I believe that with those qualifications and educational experiences, I will be able make a larger impact as a whole as I lead caregivers, staff, families, and children. ]]> 2018-03-06 02:21:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238428638 ajohns027 https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238429726 2018-03-06 02:27:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ajohns027/ztnfvgpukif0/wish/238429726
