"Aloha! My name is Ariel Medeiros and I am a second year Special Education major at UH Manoa. My experience with special education varies from working with children in my preschool classroom and having siblings with learning disabilities and behavioral disorders. I owe it to them for being my inspiration for entering this amazing field. "
