Once I discovered you could get paid to play, sing, dance, and make kids happy, I never looked back.  I have been working with children for the last seven years in a variety of settings. I recently moved to the bay area from Los Angeles where I was a teaching assistant at a private school on the UCLA campus.  I am a self-taught artist with a love for crafts and making common things beautiful.  As a kid my most positive experiences were being a member of my after school program.  It gave me a great sense of confidence and creativity.  I am really excited to be a part of the CASA family and create memories and art that will last a lifetime.
