My Bio: I was adopted when I was 6 years old by a Catholic family and grew up with 5 siblings who were also adopted. When I was 16, my parents sent me to an international boarding school because of my love for cultures and travel. After graduating high school, I moved to New York City and married my high school sweetheart at 18 years old - it has gone well and we have just celebrated our 11th anniversary. I have a 5 year old son who takes up the majority of my free time and I love spending time traveling and participating in activities with him. Being a mom has blessed me in so many ways.

Favorite thing about Early Childhood: I love watching how fast the children grow and change. I love seeing that light in their eyes when they learn/create something new, and the pride with which they want to share it with the world.

Mission: My mission is to help every child I come into contact with-and their families feel the love that Jesus has for them. I want every family to know that they have a support system whose goal is to provide for the best for their child and their family. I want to instill a passion for learning, while providing the care and nurturing that young children need.
