Jillian Gleason

I’m someone who loves staying active and creative! I’m really into theater, acting, singing, and dancing, and I’ve been exploring figure skating recently, which has been such a fun challenge. Music is also a big part of my life—I play piano, guitar, ukulele, and love singing. When I’m not busy with that, you’ll probably find me crocheting, cooking or baking from scratch, or enjoying yoga and Pilates. I’m all about finding balance, whether it’s through meditating, going for a run, or just spending time with family. I’m always looking for new adventures and ways to grow!

I have experience as a nanny, caring for children of different ages and creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for them. I’ve also worked as a restaurant hostess, where I learned to stay organized, multitask, and provide excellent customer service in a fast-paced setting. Both roles have helped me develop strong communication and time management skills while focusing on creating positive experiences for others.

I’m a high school senior who recently switched to online school to better balance my responsibilities and interests. I’m on track to graduate and have been working hard to complete all my coursework, including taking my final exam in person. Along the way, I’ve also learned American Sign Language (ASL), which has allowed me to connect with the deaf community and develop even stronger communication skills. My education has taught me discipline, time management, and adaptability, which I apply to every area of my life.
