Alex Mackall, a 2013 Student Fellow is seeking employment somewhere near Paul Smith's College in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York. Close cities include Lake Sarnac and Lake Placid. But anywhere within about 3 hours hours from there would be good.... so that would include big cities such as Albany, NY and Burlington, VT.
 
Alex is interested in youth work, ideally combining her education background in psychology with working with kids. But would also be interested in a lead teaching job at a daycare or something of that sort. Please share any connections you might have with Alex, her resume is attached.
