I have been a proud member of the Primrose School at the Galleria family since March 2021.

I am now honored to serve as the Director of Education, where I have the privilege of working closely with our teachers to ensure we continue to provide a safe, nurturing environment, academic excellence, and meaningful opportunities for teacher development. I am deeply passionate about fostering an environment where both students and staff can learn, grow, and thrive. Through hands-on educational coaching, collaboration, and intentional support, I strive to empower teachers to meet the unique needs of their students and create engaging learning experiences that encourage student achievement.
