I began my journey in childcare as a teacher almost 20 years ago. I continued to grow in my career as I transitioned into Team Leader, Assistant Director, and most recently, School Director. In addition to my experience, I have a Masters degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Special Education and extensive early childhood trainings.

I am a wife and mother of 5 beautiful children. I enjoy spending time cooking, baking, reading and going on adventures with my family.

As a parent and an educator, I have had to opportunity to be a part of my own children’s growth throughout their preschool years. It is of the utmost importance to me to ensure quality care, individualized relationships and a home-like environment for our children to learn and grow in.
