About Alexis

Hello, my name is Alexis and I am a graduating senior from Deer Park High School and upcoming undergrad freshman of Vassar College. As a part of my class' Top 10 students, I like to describe myself as hardworking, empathetic, organized, and innovative. I started working with kids when my younger brother was born, who has plenty of medical issues ranging from scoliosis to plain 'ol teeth cavities. In regard to kids outside my family, I was in middle school when I started to look over my neighbors' and some family-friends' kids, with one of the kids having down syndrome. Nowadays, I work part-time at an optometrist office so of course I've had experience with a range of individuals, including a few patients who have autism. My skills include communication, patience, and basic first aid.
