“Auntie”

“A primary caregiver to the children in care at JRM”

Nappanee, IN USA

Served with JRM:
June 2017 – April 2019

I’m from Nappanee, Indiana and I am the oldest of three children. I have two younger brothers that I love a lot.
Growing up, I went to elementary school but then was homeschooled for the rest of my education until I graduated in 2016.

Before coming to Jamaica, I worked at Yellow Creek Daycare as a “ones teacher”.
My hobbies include fishing, hiking, reading, hanging out with friends at coffee shops.
Fun fact, I didn’t actually start drinking coffee until I moved to Jamaica.
Now that I’m here, my favorite thing to do at JRM is have one-on-one time with the children during play therapy.

I came to Jamaica in June 2017
I love taking care of children and I wanted to take care of children that are orphaned, abandoned, abused, or neglected.
I also wanted to live in a different country… that is warm year-round
