I hold a Master’s degree in Fire Safety and am professionally trained as a Fire Safety Specialist. My academic background includes advanced studies in engineering, risk assessment, fire prevention systems, and safety regulations. I also have experience in research and higher education instruction within the field of fire safety.
Most recently, I worked as a Teacher’s Assistant in a school setting, where I supported classroom instruction, assisted students with daily activities, supervised behavior, and helped maintain a structured, safe, and positive learning environment. I collaborated closely with teachers and provided both academic and emotional support to children of different ages.
I have extensive childcare experience both professionally and personally. As a mother of two children, ages 6 and 10, I have developed strong skills in organization, patience, responsibility, and time management. One of my children has Down syndrome, which has given me valuable hands-on experience in caring for a child with a disability. I understand the importance of individualized support, structured routines, therapeutic consistency, and emotional sensitivity. I am confident in providing attentive, compassionate care to children with special needs and creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment.
In addition, I have experience caring for animals and understand the importance of consistency, responsibility, proper feeding routines, hygiene, and monitoring overall well-being.
I also have knowledge of foreign languages and am currently studying Computer Science to expand my technical expertise and continue my professional development.
Personally, I value an active and balanced lifestyle. I regularly attend the gym, which strengthens my discipline and resilience. I enjoy drawing as a creative outlet and reading as a way to continuously learn and broaden my knowledge. Overall, I am a responsible, dedicated, and caring individual who approaches both professional and personal responsibilities with commitment and attention to detail.
