Greetings! My name is Ms. Taylor, and I am honored to serve as Executive Director for such a wonderful company. My passion for working with young children has always driven me to be a successful teacher. My initial motivation was working in healthcare as a pediatric physician which prompted me to begin taking emergency medicine classes. I conducted my hospital, and ambulance rounds before taking a position as an assistant teacher in Houston, TX. I found so much fulfillment in that profession that I was inspired to start to take child development classes shortly after. I received my bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Sciences with a focus on Child Development in 2014.

During my time in school, I worked my way from a toddler lead teacher to an assistant director for another private preschool in Austin. I was drawn to Primrose because of the excellent reputation and true passion of each person I met during a visit to the school. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new parks with my husband, Daniel, our son Hudson and our fur babies! We are foodies that love trying new restaurants and shops in the area.

I have worked with Primrose since 2016 and could not say enough how happy I have been ever since!

Hi! My name is Ms. Alyssia and I am the Field Director of Admissions for our premier school!

I was born and raised in Austin, naturally making me a huge UT fan (Hook ‘Em!). I have been married for 15 years and have three daughters and one son, which attends Primrose. I love to bake, play board games and garden. I also enjoy reading, scrap booking and homesteading!

I attended Austin Community College to study and obtained my certificate in Child Development. I plan to complete my education to reach my goal in getting my bachelors in Family and Child Development. I have been in Early Childhood Education for 20 years, some time spent at another Primrose School. I believe I have a unique perspective of what it means to not only be a Primrose parent but also working through the sequence of being a teacher to being in leadership. These experiences have allowed me to truly learn what families are looking for in their child’s social and academic success through their Primrose journey.

I look forward to building trusted relationships and working with families to make their time here at Primrose the best experience possible.

I’m Chef Enas, and I’m so grateful to be part of the Primrose family! I joined the team in July 2022, and since then, it’s been a joy to create nutritious and delicious meals that help keep our community fueled and happy. With a passion for crafting nutrient-balanced dishes, I’m especially committed to ensuring that every student—especially those with allergies or dietary restrictions—receives a safe and satisfying meal.

I’m driven by the belief that food should not only be nourishing for the body but also enjoyable. Whether I’m customizing meals or creating new recipes, I’m always going the extra mile to make sure everyone gets the nutrition they need to thrive.

Originally from Egypt, I moved to the United States 13 years ago and have been working in the food industry for 10 years. I have a Bachelor’s of Science in Accounting from Cairo, Egypt, but food has always been my true passion.

When I’m not in the kitchen, I love spending time with my grandchildren, cooking, and crafting. The best part of my job is seeing the smiles on all the children’s faces, knowing that I’ve helped make their day a little brighter.

I’m thankful for the opportunity to be part of such a warm and supportive team, and I’m excited to continue nurturing our community with healthy, happy meals!
