Diamond Harrison
Director
Hello, I’m Diamond! I’m from Houston, Tx. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, and I always look forward to trying new foods and adventures. I have worked with children for 8 years. Each child is unique in their own way, and I love learning from them. “’And what is as important as knowledge?’ Asked the mind. ‘Caring and seeing with the heart’, answered the soul.” – Flavia Weedn
