Montessori education has forever been a part of my life. As a Montessori student myself, I fell in love with learning about the world around me and helping others. Now, as a teacher, I love watching students discover how to do something independently and watching the pride they have for themselves when they accomplish something new or challenging. I love being a Montessori teacher because I love helping children reach their full potential and find joy in their work. Montessori learning honors each child for who they are and is built upon safety, respect, and love. That’s a special thing to be a part of everyday!

 

My days are spent with my three girls, my husband, and our chocolate lab, Gracie. You can find me by the ocean or in the sunshine, taking a walk or run, and enjoying a good cup of coffee! I am the oldest of five, and love to spend time with my siblings, parents, and extended family.
