I have Bachelors and Associate degrees in Early Childhood Education and multiple Director Certifications. I have over 20 years of experience in ECE as a Teacher, Director, Regional Director and Trainer.

I believe children are sponges absorbing the world around them, forming their personalities. Children thrive when they can fully develop their sense of wonder, enhance their creativity, and develop their knowledge through hands-on experiences and guidance from passionate teachers.

Mommy to two children, I have turned my husband into a “foodie.” As a family, we enjoy watching the latest movie or TV show, traveling, Soccer Games and of course The Atlanta Braves!
