My name is Aryn and I am a recent university graduate looking to pursue a career in childcare and education. I have worked with children for many years and it's something that is extremely fulfilling for me. Some of my hobbies include fitness, cooking, baking, and playing board games. Studying sociology in university provided me with many skills such as strong verbal and written communication, cultural sensitivity, and excellent problem-solving skills. I am also an experienced plant-based, vegetarian, vegan cook having professional experience working as a chef, as well as being an avid home chef. Please reach out to me if you would like to know anything else about me!
