Please tell us about your background and how you came to be at Empower Generations.
I started working for the Saugus Union School District elementary schools as a substitute office assistant / para educator / campus supervisor for one year. Then I was hired full time at Mountainview Elementary as an aid for six months. I came across this role on a job website. I had been seeking a good opportunity, and this position immediately caught my attention.
What are you most excited about as you enter your role at Empower Generations?
Once I read the job description and did my research, I was interested in the opportunity to further develop my skills and specialize within the iLEAD community.
Please share five fun facts about you! Extra credit for lots of details!
- I like to eat Flamin’ Hot Cheetos with pickles.
- I am a huge fan of Harry Potter. I have read all the books and have also started to collect all the wands. I even watch the films on repeat.
- Nick Jonas has the same birthday as me and, yes, I am a Jonas Brothers fan.
- My favorite movie is Beauty and the Beast.
- My favorite TV show is Grey’s Anatomy.
