    I have worked in several research labs, creating and distributing surveys, perfecting wet-lab techniques, and analyzing data using SPSS and STATA. Armed with an education in behavioral health and neuroscience, I independently researched and wrote a thesis on pain and depression in college students.

With ever-increasing learning demands, and limited time and resources, I quickly learned that inevitably some children fail to perform adequately among their peers. This reality came quite clear to me through my experience working and substitute teaching in a public elementary school.…
