Tricia always wanted to be a teacher. She majored in Elementary Education from Westfield State University. After she completed her observation, she realized she had a particular interest in teaching children with special needs. She heard about Seven Hills from her Uncle and was initially appointed to the Daycare facility. Later, she transitioned to her current role at the Pediatric Center. After spending 2.5 years at the organization, she believes “it is critical to understand the temperament of the children you teach and be 100% dedicated to your job” to succeed.
