About Me

My name is Kaite Fila and i'm a sophmore at Northeastern Illinois University. I'm twenty years old and I'm an Elementary Education Major. I currently work at the Jewish Community Center in Skokie Illinois. I've been a staff member there for almost five years. Over the summer I work in the day camp as a counselor with anywhere between kindergarden and third graders. During the school year I work in the day care. In the day care I work with all ages between infants (four month olds) and pre-schoolers. My hobbies are drawing, listening to music, swimming, and horseback riding. I love hanging out with my friends, going to the movies, and relaxing at home while reading a good book. I'm very energetic and when I'm with my friends we tend to act a little crazy. So that's a little information about me.
